The BIrd Experience ( NL )
All kinds of birds can be spotted in the marshes of the Ospelse Peel, but not this one. From The Hague, composer, singer and harmonica player Mees Vullings is heading this way with a bunch of seasoned musicians in his wake. The Bird Experience delivers ghostly, voodoo-soaked psychedelic blues full of gritty soul and dirty funk. Vullings casts a spell with devilish vocals that summon the spirit of Screamin’ Jay Hawkins. His blues harp wails in the tradition of Paul Butterfield and Jason Ricci. A show by this twelve-piece outfit turns into a hypnotic, unpredictable ritual, with a groove that wraps around your spine and forces you to move. Whether you want to or not.
