I’m very happy to announce my new endorsement with John Pearse Strings, maker of fine guitar strings and accessories. If you have a chance, try out some of their beautiful products or check out their website…!

Just back from a great recording session of a great piano player from Thailand, Kom Wongsawat.. The CD will feature great special guests such as Billy Drummond, Rich Perry and Michael Rodriquez..! Check the video to see some footage of the recording process..!

Last weekend I was in the studio to record with Tobias Nijboer and Joost van Schaik. We had a lot of fun and I can’t wait to show you some excerpts; which I will after the mixing is done in a couple of weeks! It will be released somewhere this year, so stay tuned!

Yesterday i had my first gig at one of New York City’s most intimate jazz clubs, the Bar Next Door. Over the past years I’ve heard many of my musical heroes at this famous jazz place and It was great to perform there with my trio. If you missed yesterday’s show i’ll be returning there on April 25th. We will be playing just one set at 6:30 pm.

Just got back from a great recording session with steve piccatagio… the CD will be released later this year and features great musicians like martin wind, joe alterman and mike roderiquez!!

on top of that i’ll be in the studio with my trio in three weeks….!!

Ill be in and around the Netherlands from the 24th of December untill the beginning of January. So if interested in bookings, projects or lessons in The Netherlands, please send me an e-mail, at dkleijn@gmail.com. Hope to see you soon!

After two months in Europe I’m back in NYC… and it feels good! I’m looking forward to another year of studying, playing, performing etc..

I wrote a lot of new material these two months in preparation of my debut album! Which will be recorded somewhere this winter. In the mean time I posted a video of a studio recording I did last week with Roos Plaatsman and Arthur Buitelaar (music -> video).

enjoy!
