About Liquid & Bones:
Liquid & Bones is a passionate yet quirky blues quartet that plays to make you dance. Singer Loes Jongerling, guitar player Marco Tinari, drummer Collin van den Broek and double bass player Lotte Dijkstra celebrate all that blues can be. From slow and atmospheric to upbeat and goofy. They are inspired by the first recordings of Memphis Minnie, the guitar play by ´the Texas razor´ Albert Collins, the undeniable Chicago shuffle and the sliding sounds from the Mississippi Delta. They take their own spin and will make it impossible to sit still!
About Renske:
Renske's love for dancing started when she was 3 years old. She might have tried almost everything there is, but her love for dancing stuck with Blues. In her classes she loves to spread her joy for dancing, diving into how to use your body, playing around, and discovering together who you are as a dancer. Be ready to get a boost of energy in her classes!
More information about the workshops, registration etc. will be announced later. Keep an eye on this facebook page!
