DROOG 5

Hans Rikken - sopranosax & (bass) clarinet
Angelique Boel - cello & altsax
Stan Stolk - double bass and electric bass
Luuk Kranenburg - drums and percussion
WillemJan Droog - grand piano and keyboards

 

DROOG5 is a jazzy ensemble playing groovy and colourful compositions
on the edge of Jazz & World Music with a touch of Classical Music,
a real ‘ Worldy Cross-over' .

The band plays a variated repertoire of mainly original compositons
by the members of the band, with rhytmical grooves in which the
arrangements of the soprano sax and cello play an important part.
A proper and original sound with influences from all the corners of the world.
