Tourtip: Tim Knol & Blue Grass Boogiemen

Tourtip: tim knol & blue grass boogiemen.

Crying Shame is de eerste single van het aanstaande album Happy Hour van Tim Knol & Blue Grass Boogiemen . Knol koestert al jaren een sterke liefde voor bluegrass, met het opnemen van dit album met zijn vrienden van ‘s Nederlands bekendste band in dit genre, is er een lang gedroomde wens van hem in vervulling gegaan.

“ Crying Shame is hoe Tim Knol & Blue Grass Boogiemen live klinken”, vertelt Knol over de nieuwe single. “Het is het meest energieke liedje van de plaat, echt een sneltrein. Ik heb er serieus op moeten oefenen om het te kunnen spelen.” Happy Hour telt twaalf nummers in bluegrass-stijl, in de aanloop naar de release van het album zullen meerdere singles verschijnen.

Knol is enthousiast over de samenwerking met de Utrechtse rootsroutiniers. “De Boogiemen zijn kwalitatief zó ontzettend goed. Als je dan een mooie bluegrassplaat gaat maken, dan moet je dat natuurlijk wel doen met gasten die deze muziek begrijpen. En deze jongens doen al 30 jaar niets anders. Ze zijn krankzinnig goed en ik vind ze zeker in Nederland maar ook ver daarbuiten op eenzame hoogte staan. Bluegrass zoals het vroeger werd gespeeld: rauw, eerlijk en vuig.”

Tim Knol & Blue Grass Boogiemen gaven al succesvolle voorproefjes op de samenwerking op het uitverkochte roots festival Once In A Blue Moon in Amsterdam in de zomer van 2018 en tijdens de jubileumshow van Knol in Paradiso en de Dutch Roots revue op de afgelopen editie van Eurosonic Noorderslag, beiden in januari dit jaar.

Knol heeft recent met I Love My Label een eigen platenlabel opgezet, Happy Hour zal daar ook op uitgebracht worden. De releasedatum is 10 mei, het album wordt op zaterdag 11 mei gepresenteerd met een show in de Amstelkerk in Amsterdam. De tour start 21 april op Paaspop, omvat inmiddels meer dan twintig shows en breidt zich doorlopend uit.

Tim Knol & Blue Grass Boogiemen live: 21 april op Paaspop, Schijndel; 11 mei in de Amstelkerk, Amsterdam (albumpresentatieshow); 24 mei op Klomppop, Ovezande; 25 mei op Sniester, Den Haag; 7 juli in het Vondelpark, Amsterdam; 20 juli op de Zwarte Cross, Lichtenvoorde; 28 juli bij Zomer op het Plein, Alkmaar; 20 augustus op Stortemelk, Vlieland; 25 augustus op Terug Naar Tiengemeten, Tiengemeten; 18 oktober in ‘t Beest, Goes; 26 oktober in Fluor, Amersfoort; 27 oktober in De Amer, Amen; 30 oktober in TivoliVredenburg, Utrecht; 1 november in De Meester, Almere; 2 november in de Gashouder, Dedemsvaart; 3 november in Rotown, Rotterdam; 8 november in 013, Tilburg; 15 november in Hedon, Zwolle; 16 november in Cacaofabriek, Helmond; 28 november in Der Aa-Theater, Groningen; 29 november in Burgerweeshuis, Deventer; 30 november in het Patronaat, Haarlem.

Bluegrass Beyond Borders: Blue Grass Boogiemen offer a true dutch treat

The common thread found with all the bands that create Bluegrass Beyond Borders lies not only in the fact that they pluck their influences from the American heartland, but also in the way they tie those traditions to their homeland heritage. For the Dutch band that refers to itself as the Blue Grass Boogiemen , their music was first honed while busking on the streets of Utrecht in The Netherlands in the late ‘80s.  

At the time, the present members of the group — Robert Jan Kanis (guitar and vocals), Arnold Lasseur (mandolin, fiddle and vocals), Aart Schroevers (upright bass and vocals) and Bart van Strien (banjo, bluesharp, fiddle and vocals) — were all playing in different bands. Neverthless, they quickly became acquainted.

“We all shared a love for 1950s bluegrass, rockabilly and country music,” Lasseur recalls. “So we decided to form a band together, and that was in 1990. Soon, we got a lot of offers for gigs in Holland and abroad. A few years later, we got offers from the US as well, and the first time we came over as a band for a tour of the States was in 1998. Byron Berline booked us for his festival in Guthrie, Oklahoma, and our friend Steve Dean, from Austin, Texas, booked a whole tour around it. We did about eight tours in the US after that, and we’ve continued to play all over Europe as well, but mostly in our native Holland. We were playing professionally as soon as we got started and then we decided to see how long it all would last. We’re still going strong today.”

Happily, the influences they digested also resonated with their audiences. Lasseur lists Bill Monroe, Jimmy Martin, Flatt & Scruggs, Jim & Jesse, the Osborne Brothers, Reno & Smiley, and the Stanley Brothers as chief among the bluegrass bands that left them with the greatest impression. Classic country entered the mix as well, and they count Hank Williams, Sr, George Jones, Lefty Frizzell, and Roy Acuff as among the archival artists that rank high on their list of favorites.

“In addition, we all love the early rockabilly musicians like Charlie Feathers, Carl Perkins, Johnny Horton, Elvis, and so on,” Lasseur adds. “We generally listen to a lot of different kinds of music. There’s also the love we share for old-timey music. We usually feature a fiddle and a   banjo tune or two in our sets.”

Lasseur says that they were fortunate enough to meet some of their heroes early on. “We paid visits to Bill Monroe, Jimmy Martin, and Earl Scruggs during the ’90s, and we’ve shared stages with other big names as well, including the Osborne Brothers, Jim & Jesse, Del McCoury, JD Crowe, and Johnson Mountain Boys. We even got the honor of backing up Rose Maddox in 1993, and Chris Hillman & Herb Pederson a couple of times, too.” 

Lasseur says that their eagerness and enthusiasm have rubbed off on the audiences they perform for. “We get a great reaction everywhere we play,” he insists. “When we started out, most people who came to see us had never heard of bluegrass music. We were happy to inform them and share the history. There were always a few young folks who were interested in banjo or mandolin lessons, or who wanted us to suggests some names for them to explore after they saw us play.”

He adds that some musicians were so inspired by what they heard that they started bands of their own. That in turn has enhanced the love of bluegrass felt back home.  

“I wouldn’t say it’s big, but there are a lot of lovers of so-called roots music in general over here, and they tend to like bluegrass,” Lasseur maintains. “It has been growing over the years though, due to the whole O Brother thing, and visits by Steve Earle, the Del McCoury Band, and Hayseed Dixie, a group that has something of a following over here. But with all humbleness, I must confess that we ourselves have had a lot to do with the growing attention to and general popularity of bluegrass here in the last 30 years.”

It’s not that the music existed in a vacuum. There was a small scene that had already been established.  

“There already were bluegrass bands playing here in Holland before us, but they never got around much outside of the small bluegrass scene like we did back then, and like we still do now. We often appeared on national television and radio shows over here, and we also got booked at some of the biggest music festivals in Holland. That got the music a lot of attention. We even made it into the national album charts a while ago with an album we recorded to celebrate our 25th anniversary. 

In fact, Blue Grass Boogiemen have several albums to their credit, five under their own name, two under the aegis of the Hillbilly Boogiemen (an offshoot featuring the same lineup but leaning more towards country and rockabilly), and one due out momentarily that was recorded with Tim Knol, an artist that Lasseur says is a significant name in The Netherlands music scene.  

“He grew up on bluegrass, and has always wanted to record a bluegrass album,” Lasseur explains. “We became friends before he got big, so he decided to record his bluegrass album with us. I wrote a bunch of songs with him and the album will be released on his own label.”  

In addition, the Boogiemen have a full slate of festival dates on tap, as well as a large club tour they’ll undertake alongside their friend Knol. “We’ve got TV and radio lined up over the next couple of weeks, and we already have gotten a little bluegrass buzz going,” Lasseur adds. “There are very exciting times ahead of us.”

Asked why he thinks bluegrass has such universal appeal, Lasseur offers a ready answer. “I think it’s because of the sincerity of it,” he replies. “It’s the ‘what you see is what you get’ factor. It’s very direct, and many music lovers look for that. Although it’s not very easy to play or sing, it’s still quite easy to ‘get.’ Many of the topics are timeless, like in folk music in general. It can easily speak to anyone, wherever they come from. And the musical skills speak for themselves.”

Lasseur has another theory as well. “The music can be very energetic, which always attracts lovers of all genres,” he muses. “We’ve played at a lot of different kinds of festivals, even apart from the bluegrass festivals where we’ve performed.   Believe it or not, we even played at a Hardcore punk rock/speed metal festival! And the folks loved it.”

Tim Knol & Blue Grass Boogieman

• Theatreconcert

Tim Knol and the award-winning Blue Grass Boogiemen have returned to the theater with ‘Tim Knol & Blue Grass Boogiemen Ride Again!’ Their previous successful show, ‘Lost & Found III,’ left the audience craving for more. These five friends continue to challenge one another with their virtuoso string playing, making their joy of playing the guitar ooze from the stage. Additionally, a new collaborative album, a follow-up of their successful album ‘Happy Hour,’ will be released right before the start of this theater tour.

Delving deeper into the rich history of bluegrass and country music, these musicians have a keen eye for the nuances of performers like Townes Van Zandt, The Stanley Brothers, and Flatt and Scruggs. In ‘Tim Knol & Blue Grass Boogiemen Ride Again,’ they play tracks from their latest album and music from their heroes, interspersed with stories about those heroes.

Tim Knol: vocals, guitar | Arnold Lasseur: mandolin | Aart Schroevers: bass | Robert-Jan Kanis: guitar | Bart van Strien: banjo 

The following was written in the media about the CD ‘Happy Hour’:

de Volkskrant**** : “When Dutch musicians are playing deeply rooted American genres you might be a bit skeptical. There's nothing worse than Americana smelling like Brussels sprouts. Fortunately, there are artists like Tim Knol and the Blue Grass Boogiemen, who are experts at playing bluegrass. Anyone who has seen them jointly on stage already knows. They know how to play Americana, and know how to play it extremely well… Their show 'Happy Hour' provides plenty of proof."

AD : "The combination of Knol's delightful drawling voice and the sometimes uplifting, sometimes melancholic, polyphonic American country music not only makes sense, but is utterly brilliant. The songs on 'Happy Hour' are fresh, soulful, uplifting, and authentic. Their live show is a definite must-see.”

Beste Boogiemannetjes, ik vind dat T-shirt van Claudia Hek zo mooi, maar twijfel over de maat. Jullie hebben er zo te zien nog maar twee in voorraad: M en XL, dus ik moet snel zijn. Zou M passen voor een dame met maat 40-42?

Ha Willeke, mocht je nog geen antwoord gehad hebben, kun je het beste even een mail sturen naar [email protected] . Groeten uit Utrecht!

Goedenavond, gisteren het concert in De Kring te Roosendaal bezocht. Geweldig! Cas gaf aan dat vanwege de Corona perikelen de CD welke ze bij hadden helaas niet aangeboden mocht worden maar het wel te regelen was deze anderszins te bestellen, dus bij deze :-). Ik hoor graag van u waarvoor alvast dank.

dank voor je reactie. Ik heb je e-mail intussen beantwoord, maar ook langs deze weg meld ik even dat de cd te bestellen is via [email protected] . Hartelijk dank voor de getoonde interesse en hopelijk tot een volgende keer! Vriendelijke groet uit Utrecht, Arnold.
