Trumpeter Eric Vloeimans, is one of the stars of the vibrant and highly creative Dutch (indeed, entire European) jazz scene and has been described as having “.... a melodic style evocative of late-period Miles Davis.” He has released several award-winning CD’s, and has received many honors for his music,
including being a four-time recipient of the Dutch Edison Award and the prestigious Bird Award at the North Sea Jazz Festival. Vloeimans first performed at Outpost in 2011 and returns with his new project, Oliver’s Cinema, a trio featuring Belgian accordionist, Tuur Florizoone, & cellist, Jörg Brinkmann of Germany. The trio formed when Vloeimans, as he puts it, “decided to tackle his aversion to the accordion” and found his way to Florizoone. After a series of duo concerts in 2012, Vloeimans added cellist Brinkmann. They did their first trio gig after only two hours of rehearsing and it was such a success that the trio remained intact. Their 2013 debut CD, Oliver’s Cinema (an anagram of Vloeimans’ name)features music written for film as well as music with a cinematic quality, ranging from Ennio Morricone soundtracks to new compositions for imaginary films.
