The Next Generation
Drums & Percussion Concert
That flawless sense of showmanship and rhythm seems to run in the blood, as proven by drummer Lucas van Merwijk and his Surinamese-Dutch daughter, Gianna Tam. Having learned the craft from her father, Gianna has since carved out her own impressive career. As a drummer and percussionist, she tours extensively across the globe. The wider public was introduced to her talents as a singer through The Voice of Holland and her critically acclaimed solo albums. Now, father and daughter join forces for a high-energy, spectacular percussion concert.
Lucas van Merwijk has been at the forefront of the European Latin, jazz, and percussion scene for over 30 years. Between 1993 and 2015, he was repeatedly voted Best Jazz Drummer and Best World/Fusion Drummer by the readers of De Slagwerkkrant.
