Their only Danish festival and concert in 2025
Singer, songwriter and guitarist Hans Theessink is one of the musicians who has featured at Tønder Festival since the early days in the 1970s and has played at the festival many times in many different constellations.
Over a career ranging over five decades, 30 albums and several awards, Hans Theessink has established himself as a mester of the acoustic blues guitar and slide guitar. His characteristic deep voice and talent for combining blues, folk and americana appeals to both traditional blues fans and a broader audience.
Dutch-born Hans Theessink has lived in Vienna in Austria since the 1980s, but in the1970s, he lived in Denmark and has a solid Danish following to this day. This year he returns with the Hans Theessink Band. Their intense, sparkling sessions offer an irresistible mix of blues, rhythm & blues, folk, roots rock and even some gospel. Hans Theessink gets solid backing from keyboard virtuoso Roland Guggenbichler on organ, piano and accordion, while three Zimbabwian singers and musicians, Vusa Ndlovu, Blessings Nkomo and Ramadu Moyo, add their powerful voices, percussion, choreography and African soul to complete the picture.
