SASKIA LAROO & WARREN BYRD |
It’s summertime! And it’s a summertime full of music — though not all the time.
Before we take a short break, we’ve got one more planned concert this week, and a surprise extra show just confirmed!
But first, a little look back...

Looking Back: June Energy! |
|
What a month June has been!
With the Saskia Laroo Band, we brought our mix of funky jazz, hip-hop, and even a bit of rock to the stage,
including our take on the classic song Back to Terschelling, performed during our Oerol Festival shows. With our Duo Laroo/Byrd, often joined by special guests, we dove into the world of pure acoustic jazz and explored its more intimate side. |
