Sanne Huijbregts brings a fresh, innovative take on vocal folk jazz with her quartet, blending her diverse influences into a sound that keeps listeners engaged and awake. Her compositions are deeply personal, telling stories through a mix of vocals, percussion, and intricate instrumentation.
Award-winning singer, vibraphonist, and composer Sanne Huijbregts is no stranger to inJazz. With her melodic, inventive, and sometimes downright quirky song structures, she leaves audiences in awe. We're thrilled that she is presenting her brand-new quartet at inJazz 2022. When reflecting on how she has arrived at this point, she doesn't just mention the intense struggles during the pandemic.
“The search for this project was a long journey. I started developing myself as a percussionist, among other things. In the spring of 2021, my new compositions were ready for a project, and I cautiously began playing with some people. By rehearsal number 1, it was clear – this is my band, these are my people. Not just because they’re incredibly good musicians, but because they 100% understand me and my sound.”
Asked about her new music, Sanne refers to her manager: “He uses the term ‘vocal folk jazz.’ I describe it like this: ‘A blend of my inspirations like Becca Stevens, Laura Mvula, Bon Iver, Punch Brothers, Radiohead, and many, many more, with a mix of collective vocals, percussion, viola, bass, and drums, where the story of each composition takes center stage, and the asymmetrical layers keep you awake.’ But maybe that’s the exact definition of ‘vocal folk jazz.’”
Lineup:
Sanne Huijbregts – vocals, vibraphone
Roosmarijn Tuenter – vocals, viola
Pat Cleaver – bass, vocals
Jeroen Batterink – drums, vocals
