NEW COOL COLLECTIVE
eight times jazz
Wednesday 10 February 2027
It all started in 1993 at the Soul Kitchen in Amsterdam, where Benjamin Herman and DJ Graham B shared the stage. While Graham B spun records, Benjamin played the saxophone. A unique combination. Eventually, this led to the eight-piece New Cool Collective, a band that has played countless times in leading clubs and at festivals all over the world, both as a permanent eight-piece lineup and as a nineteen-piece big band. On February 10, this acclaimed jazz band will perform as an eight-piece lineup in the Grolsch Zaal!
