The Hague blues-roots trio Jimding plays on Sunday, June 7 at Café ‘t Hoekpandje in The Hague city centre with guest artist Konstantin Iliev on tenor sax and clarinet.
Jimding brings together three seasoned old souls: blues growler Jim Wake on vocals, guitar, and blues harmonica, with Nico Hart on bass and John den Exter on percussion. Jimding has an extensive repertoire of his own making that sounds familiar in one way or another; in it, Jimding muses and ponders on love and loss, falling and rising, betrayal and farewell, the sublime and the ridiculous, good times and bad, served as a cocktail of irony, annoyance, and appreciation for the absurdities of life. In addition to the original material, Jimding puts his own spin on blues, rock, and roots classics by iconic artists such as Muddy Waters, T-Bone Walker, The Rolling Stones, and The Beatles, among others.
