Vintage Brothers

The Vintage Brothers are a unique blues duo, who have been performing since 2004 in pubs, venues, festivals and even living rooms of and for blues enthusiasts. We play blues in the broadest sense with a dash of rock and jazz. The reportoire consists of both own compositions and self-arranged songs by the great blues & roots artists of all times in different styles.

The guitar playing is inspired by Robert Johnson Muddy Waters to Eric Clapton and the Stones. He alternates the blues harmonica with the melodic solos with the authentic blues sound of departing steam trains and rumbling wagons. In a semi-acoustic setting, the audience imagines themselves in an original Juke Joints. Our mission is to bring back and spread the sound of the "primal blues".

The Vintage Brothers are;

Jan van Rijn: Guitar – Vocals – Foot Tambourine.

Rien van Rijn: Harmonica – Vocals – Guitar – Foot stomp kick drum.
