About Cram
This new quartet by Van Binsbergen sounds energetic and groovy, but has her characteristic frayed, playful edge to it. Drummer Arend Niks and saxophone player Rutger van Otterloo also play in Corrie en de Grote Brokken, the combination with the fantastic latin-jazz bass player Mick Paauwe (Cubop City Big band, Rumbata, Bye-ya!) is new. Droning, intense baritone saxophone- and basslines with crackling drum- and guitar playing, next to subtle ballads and more open structures. End of 2005 guitar player and composer Corrie van Binsbergen was invited for the 'Rencontres Musicales de Rabat' in Maroc. For this occasion she put together a quartet. In december 2005 CRAM played it's first concert on the festival, this was so succesfull that a new band was born! The second day of the same festival they performed together with the Moroccan singer Touriya Hadraoui. This was so much enjoyed by everyone that we are working on a continuation of this collaboration. Amoughst the places where Cram performed were Venice (Italy) and the North Sea Jazz Festival 2007 the press on CRAM: Cram is a small band that plays their music with extreme lots of fun. Beautiful kaleidoscopical music played sharp as a knife! CRAM was one of the most surprising acts on The North Sea Festival, there was a lot to enjoy. CRAM is absolutely to be recommended for the audience and program advisors.
