The Gulpener Bluegrassfestival was wonderful. Thanks and congrats to Joost van Es and the folks at De Parel van Zuilen for putting it together. Next up are Huis Verloren in Hoorn and the Memphis Heart and Soul festival in Enschede. Check our schedule for more info. Hope to see you there!
We had us a wonderful time again in Switzerland. Thanks folks! You really know how to make us feel welcome there. Hope to be back again soon!
Now we’re getting ready for the Gulpener Bluegrass Festival at De Parel van Zuilen, Utrecht. A great festival which is organised by our fiddling friend and honorary Boogieman Joost van Es. There’s a lot of great bands from Holland and abroad and the headliners are none less than Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver. If you get the chance to attend, we suggest you take it!
We’d like to offer our sincere condolences to the friends and family of Ferdie Tummers. It was always good to see him when he came to our show. He shall be missed dearly.
This is a photo Ferdie shot the last time we saw him.
Hi Folks!
This Halloween marks the 24th anniversary of the Boogiemen. And we’re still going strong! The last couple of months have proved that the audience for our music, and bluegrass and associated music in general, is growing faster than ever! Thank you all for your continuing support down through the years! We hope to see you all somewhere down the line as we go into our 25th year, and hope to celebrate a quarter century of Boogiemen together with all of you! (photo: Rolf Versteegh)
Hi folks! Summer break is over and there’s a lot to look forward to, starting this Sunday in Gouda and Amsterdam (check our dates under ‘shows’ for details). Hope to see you all again real soon!
Here’s a few flyers for upcoming shows:
WOW! It’s been quite the ride these last months folks, with lots of shows at festivals ranging from punk-oriented, blues, country, rock’n’roll, folk, jazz, roots to bluegrass. Just the way we like it!
This week we got a couple gigs lined up and then on Monday our well deserved summer break will start. But the fun ain’t over yet. In August we’ll be back and the ride will continue. We´d like to thank you for your continuing support and wish you a wonderful summer. Hope to see you all somewhere down the line!
Thanks for the pics John Blok, Bianca Rommes and Quinten Peelen!

Hi folks!
It sure has been a busy couple of weeks we had, delivering the grass up and down the country at various festivals, all over the musical map, just as we like it! We won a lotta new friends and picked up another award along the way: No. 1 band at European World of Bluegrass in the ‘Audience Popularity’- category. We also delivered the grass at a couple of schools, sponsored by the US embassy to get that Monroe-doctrine going with the kids (as part of the promotion for the Pijnacker Plein Bluegrass Continue reading →
