Prinsentuin Concerts - Ruben Hoeke Band & J.B. Bacon en Arjen Bras

Van Halen? Montrose? Aerosmith!? No…; RHB! Ruben Hoeke Band! Ruben Hoeke has been one of the most influential Dutch guitarists for years. Since his first performance in 1992, he has toured the Netherlands continuously, played at festivals in Denmark, Germany, Belgium, Estonia, USA, Ireland, Luxembourg and Curaçao, released thirteen albums and appeared on stage with countless national and international top musicians. Various media describe Ruben Hoeke as a ‘world-class star guitarist’ and ‘one of the greatest contemporary Dutch guitarists’.

His ability to combine rock with pop, soul and blues makes his live performances unique and energetic. In 2016, not only was his new album ‘Sonic Revolver’ internationally acclaimed, he was also asked to join Beth Hart’s band. Ultimately, he chose his own path. Although Ruben is a guitarist who can effortlessly move through various musical styles, Rock and Blues are closest to his heart.

JB Bacon is a singer-songwriter and poet who lives and works in a village near Leeuwarden. In 2006 he won the singer-songwriter contest of Friesland. JB Bacon is a man with a guitar and a voice in the spirit of Neil Young, Eddie Vedder and Sixteen Horsepower. His songs are a quirky mix of Americana and acoustic grunge. Sometimes subdued, then again playing with fire. Music buddy Arjen Bras enriches the music with soulful guitar playing.
