JIMI HENDRIX TRIBUTE NIGHT
Friday September 18, 2021 it will be exactly 51 years ago that guitar virtuoso and musical great Jimi Hendrix left us in astonishment. His sudden death – at the age of just 27 – hit the music world like a bomb. Hendrix was the most eccentric guitarist ever and is still an important source of inspiration for the current generation of musicians.
Jimi Hendrix Tribute 2020 is a large group of top guitarists from the Netherlands who take a look at the American’s oeuvre – from The Experience to Band of Gypsies!
So on September 16, 2021, a day before the fiftieth anniversary of Hendrix’s death, both acts will be in the Grote Zaal.
