Live percussion and djembe in Bruges and on the coast
Beach bars, beach parties, weddings and corporate events from Knokke to Nieuwpoort. This is where I play most.
My second home: the coast
In Bruges and on the coast I have played more than 50 times since 2023.
No region sees me more often. Salito Beach in Blankenberge is my regular spot: fourteen shows so far, from the summer kick-off to the September closing and even in winter. I have also played King Beach in Blankenberge, Ostend Beach, Bar Eugène in Nieuwpoort and Rubus Beach in Middelkerke. In Wenduine and De Haan I have played beach sessions, the Christmas market and New Year's Eve parties.
It is not all beach. I have played five weddings in the area, including at Colliemolenhoeve in Bruges and Lauretum in Jabbeke, and four corporate events, one of them at Casino Knokke. From Kortrijk I reach Bruges in 45 minutes and the coast in about an hour, travel included.

Ibiza vibes on the North Sea
A beach bar at sunset, a DJ playing afro house and an LED djembe pushing the rhythm: on the coast, that is the combination that works best. For a summer party, a beach wedding or a corporate event with a sea view, I bring the same atmosphere.
- Summer: beach bars, beach weddings, garden parties in the polders.
- Winter: Christmas markets, winter bars and New Year's Eve parties in the coastal towns.
- All year: weddings at farmhouses around Bruges, galas and corporate parties in casinos and event halls.

A summer season on the coast
More than half of my coastal shows fall between June and August. A typical summer weekend: Saturday at a beach bar in Blankenberge or Nieuwpoort, Sunday at Ostend Beach or a beach session in Wenduine. In between come weddings in the polders around Bruges and Jabbeke.
After summer it carries on. Autumn brings the closing parties, corporate events and parties. December has the Christmas markets in Blankenberge and Wenduine and New Year's Eve. There is even a wedding at Salito Beach booked for 2027. If you want a summer Saturday on the coast, book early.
Questions about events on the coast
Question not listed? Send me a message.
Can you play on the beach or on a seafront terrace?
Yes, that is familiar ground. I ask for a covered spot, a firm surface and power nearby. Wind and salt are fine as long as the electronics stay dry.
Do you play on the coast in winter too?
Yes. I have played the Christmas markets in Blankenberge and Wenduine, New Year's Eve parties and winter editions at Salito Beach. A December corporate party or a winter wedding by the sea works too.
What about sound at a beach wedding or garden party?
Outdoor events may be subject to local rules on sound and finishing times. These differ by town and venue, so check with the venue or council in advance. With digital percussion through the DJ mixer, the sound stays well under control.
Do you charge travel to the coast?
No. The whole coast and Bruges are within the first 100 km from Kortrijk, so travel is included in your proposal.
