William Barrett Band – Broeierige akoestische jazz uit Amsterdam Rauw, onstuimig en ongepolijst is de muziek die de William Barrett Band maakt. De simpele stukken die bandleider William Barrett schrijft zijn de poort naar vrijheid, in improvisaties, samenspel en samensmelting met het publiek. Heb je wel eens samen met een bassist boven een muzikale afgrond gestaan? Vanavond kan het.

“The steamy focus of attention were four musicians, set up in a circle, who may have been short of breath sometimes, yet were never short of splendor. They go by Mo van der Does, Gijs Idema, Wouter Kühne and – bandleader – William Barrett. Barrett, arguably Amsterdam’s favorite guest (musician), never lacked ideas. With his unique poetic jazz project Vondelier, he already showcased his competency as a composer, as well as his off-trail approach. […] He now explores a sound that is more emotionally immediate. Side by side with some of the most productive musicians in Dutch jazz, the 31-year-old appears more confident than ever before.” -Nemo Koning social & cultural researcher, writer
