LISTEN TO KLEEFSTRA|BAKKER|KLEEFSTRA LIVE

Two months ago the Irish label Northern Twilights published a cassette by Kleefstra|Bakker|Kleefstra, containing two live gigs. One of these gigs is now streamed online on Soundcloud. It's the one recorded in the town of Drachten, featuring Sytse Jansma (vocals) and Sanne van Hek (trumpet, also on the picture above with Anne Chris Bakker). Speaking of Kleefstra|Bakker|Kleefstra, Anne Chris Bakker just released his first solo album. Great stuff which you can read more about over at Somehow Records.
