Line up:
Petra de Winter – Vocalist
Pim van Riezen – Piano & synthesizer(s)
Marcel Peters – Double bass & electric bass
List view:
1. Microphone Shure SM58, wired (or non-wired).
Petra can bring her own, wired Shure SM58 or sing through the
available microphone on stage. Preferable with some reverb & delay on
it. Our leadsinger uses several vocal styles (jazz, rock, pop, opera, gothic),
with sometimes more & sometimes less reverb and delay. This requires a
dynamic approach towards the mixing process.
2. Boom stand / microphone stand.
3. Piano /keys
Our pianist-synthplayer Pim usually brings his own stage piano with a large
Keyboard. If there’s a tuned & miked upright piano (or even a grand piano, we
would absolutely love that! But not necessary of course) in the house then
we would prefer that. A good electric stage piano with a large keyboard is
allright too. Pim usually sits behind his piano and synths, so he also needs some kind of chair (which is not on the stageplot’s drawing).
4. Synths
Our pianist/synthplayer, Pim, usually brings his own, small Minimoog or Korg synth
too.
5. Contrabass (Double bass).
Our bassplayer, Marcel, brings his double bass, it has a DI. He plucks and bows, it both sounds different, so if there’s time in the soundcheck, let’s try.
6. Electric bass Our bassplayer brings that one too.
7. Bass combo (basversterker).
Our bassplayer usually brings his own basscube for small &
medium stages. We don’t have a bass combo for a big stage, so we might
need that then.
8. Electric power
We usually need electric power for the keyboards, laptop, bas combo &
stage monitors.
9. Stage monitor 1.
10. Stage monitor 2.
For smaller & normal sized stages:
Please keep in mind that we usually play as a trio, with Pim on piano/keyboards/synths, Marcel on double bass (plus electric bass) and Petra on vocals. Our bassplayer usually brings his own basscube (he has a DI). Our pianist can bring his own electric piano, but he prefers playing on a recently tuned upright piano or a grand piano (if it’s not there: no problem though). We can bring our own small PA (‘zanginstallatie’ in Dutch) but we prefer playing over your PA. The singer usually brings her own SM58 microphone (wired) with her, and she also likes wireless mikes but she doesn’t have that herself . We prefer two or three monitors, but on small stages we can manage with one monitor as well.
If there’s a sound technician around (which we usually don’t need for the smallest stages), please keep in mind that our pianist/keyboardplayer plays on two or three different pianos/synths/keyboards, with different sounds. Our bassplayer plays double bass, also bowed, and electric bass. Our leadsinger uses several vocal styles (jazz, rock, pop, opera, gothic), with sometimes more & sometimes less reverb and delay. This requires a quite dynamic approach towards the mixing process.
