BIOGRAPHY

WOUTER KIERS

Wouter Kiers (1970) began playing the clarinet in 1979 with the local Brass Band.In 1984 he changed his instrument and started to play the saxophone, a change that he has never regretted for one moment! In 1985 he gained a little bit of experience with the “light” music genre; he played for some time in his fathers danceband. In 1988 he joined a popband in which his colleague-saxaphonist , Ruud de Vries also played. These two collaborated together and formed quite a few different bands, one in particular was Kiers and de Vries, which soon gained notable recognition. In 2002 this band appeared at the North Sea Jazz Festival. Prior to this, Kiers had played at this very famous festival with The Blue Moon Special Band. In the year 2000 he replaced colleague Boris Vanderlek, a tenorsaxaphonist, and accompanied the world acclaimed Hans Dulfer during his tour thru Japan. To date, Wouter Kiers is a highly requested tenorsaxophonist with the ability to play in so many diverse styles. He is an absolute chameleon of musical styles moving with such diversity and dexterity thru any composition that crosses his pathway, never flinching or afraid to try anything new ….

Next to his own band, Wouter Kiers Trio and Quartet, he still hammers steadily away on the road with his Saxrockband, Blood Sweat & Kiers and plays with other various formations/bands, one of which is the NorthDutch ‘Cheeerz'.
