Doc Jazz on tour in the ‘Lowlands’
What started out as a short visit to the Netherlands – which is the country where Palestinian surgeon and musician Doc Jazz was born and raised – ended up becoming quite a busy schedule with performances, interviews and radio appearances!
How did this happen? Well, one thing led to another … isn’t that how life goes sometimes? Therefore, despite the relatively late notice, we are proud to present the upcoming Doc Jazz Lowlands Tour!
What follows is a list of performances, including date, location and time, so that if you live in the Netherlands or in Belgium (the ‘Lowlands’), you can make sure to be there!
Tip: bookmark this page. Unexpected changes in the schedule will of course be announced through the website – and the first to know will be those who have Doc Jazz on Facebook and Twitter – but the information will also be updated on this page. There is also a version of this page in Dutch.
