Edwin Evers Band

The Edwin Evers Band brings a show built around the joy of playing and communal singing. Around drummer and radio host Edwin Evers, a large live formation grew in the early 2000s, featuring multiple vocalists, a tight rhythm section and horns. The band draws from decades of pop, rock, soul and funk—from the 1970s to the present—and distils those songs into compact live arrangements that leave room for dynamics and chorus-led moments.

On 23 May 2026 they play at Caprera in Bloemendaal. Expect a set where familiar classics alternate with surprising choices, driven by grooving rhythms, multi-part refrains and plenty of onstage interaction. Songs aren’t reproduced note-for-note: the band shifts tempos, varies instrumentation and builds dramatic arcs that carry the audience from restrained to full-on and back again.

What began in the wake of Evers’ radio work has grown into a staple on clubs, theatre and outdoor stages across the Netherlands. You can hear the miles they’ve logged: tight playing, a balance between vocals and horns, and a sense of timing that leads the room. Whether it’s soul ballads or sharply focused funk, the Edwin Evers Band presents it as an ensemble that lands every note with purpose—ideal for an evening outdoors in Bloemendaal.
