Ruud Bemelmans's Connections

Ruud Bemelmans's Page

About me:: I'm a multi-instrumentalist, focusing primarily on early blues, and some European folk. I've been interested in throat singing since around 2001.

Instruments:: Guitar, bass, ukulele, banjo, cittern/Irish bouzouki, Kantele, doshpuluur, native American flute, Turkish ney, shakuhachi (and more)

Influences:: In kargyraa the absolute biggest influence is Aldyn-ool Sevek. As for using khöömei in my early blues repertoire it's Blind Willie Johnson.

At 10:06pm on July 2, 2014, Moisés Pérez Miguélez said…: Hi from Spain!

I sing with "MuOM, Barcelona Overtone Singing Choir" & we visit London & Wales at the end of this month! It'd be a genuine blessing for the group if you are able to attend an event or share the info with some of your contacts, if you feel inspired to do so.

Thank you & enjoy your week!
