Biography:

Matt
's Mood brings a specially arranged musical show, a tribute to the music of the British band Matt Bianco and Polish singer Basia Trzetrzelewska. Hits like "Whose Side Are You On?", "Half a Minute" and "Get Out Of Your Lazy Bed" have been arranged in a fresh acoustic approach, staying true to the innovative Matt Bianco sound which smoothly blends music styles including jazz, pop, bossa nova, and salsa. The band's sound features a jazz trio added with saxophone/flute and the fresh, surprising sound of tight vocal harmonies.

Matt's Mood consists of top-class musicians that have played with top names of Dutch and international pop, jazz, latin, world music, and music theatre, such as The Metropole Orchestra, Lucas van Merwijk, Brian Lynch, Nelson Gonzales, Alfredo "Chocolate" Armenteros, Andy Gonzalez, Izaline Calister, and Gerardo Rosales. They are also active in the Dutch contemporary dance scene, and one of the band members even sat on the jury for the first Dutch edition of the “So You Think You Can Dance” TV-show on RTL5.
