With 20 albums, an instruction video, a songbook and a DVD to his name, Hans Theessink has become a roots and blues institution. Bo Diddley describes him as ‘one helluva guitar player’. His live performances are a powerful mix of his sonorous baritone voice and that unmistakable guitar work. Musical variety has always been Theessink’s trademark. He guarantees heartfelt blues and roots music on a high emotional and technical level. His extensive roots repertoire is the tour guide for a musical journey that takes the audience on a trip through a mix of Blues, Rhythm & Blues, Folk, Roots and Gospel – a celebration of infectious ‘handmade’ music.

‘Hans Theessink is an international blues treasure. He is one of the world’s pre-eminent pickers and his warm baritone expresses blues’
