Description
Dutch blues vocalist and harp master Pieter "Big Pete" van der Pluijm may not yet be a familiar name in 'mainstream' music, but he's already well-established in the international Blues World. At 23, Pete was handpicked for a European memorial tour to honor the music and memory of legendary harmonica player and vocalist Lester Butler (the Red Devils and Thirteen), backed by several of Lester's original band mates.
Since then, Big Pete has gone on to form and record many other successful projects including his debut release 'Bathroom Acoustics' by The Strikes, a couple of CDs by the rockin' 50's Chicago blues outfit The Backbones, and the more progressive and forward-thinking group M.O.C.T. (Men Of Considerable Taste). Pete's growing reputation has also led to tours and performances backing many internationally acclaimed blues artists including Alex Schultz, Mitch Kashmar, Monster Mike Welch, Hook Herrera, Matt Schofield, and Ian Siegal.
The talents of Big Pete where also noticed by Director/owner Rand Chortkoff of 'Delta Groove Music' in the USA who offered him the opportunity to come out to Los Angeles, CA to perform on the album "Shake For Me" by The Mannish Boys and to record his first album for Delta Groove Records in Los Angeles, in May 2011. The album was nominated for a prestigious 'BMA' (blues music award) in the category 'best new artist debut'. These awards are known to be 'the Grammys' in blues music.
Since then, Pete with his own 'Big Pete Blues Band' went on to perform on many of the big blues festivals, both in Europe and beyond, and is regarded as one of the premier blues harmonica players in the world today.
And here is a steaming live album, which showcases Pete's talent backed by his wonderful band (Sander Kooiman, Erkan Ozdemir, Willie Maes) and with the help of blues friends Monster Mike Welch, Kid Ramos and Little Anthony Geraci. -
