ABOUT
Paul van Kessel is a Dutch jazz vocalist.
Extending beyond solo performances; he has collaborated with various groups and theatrical productions such as "New York Round Midnight," "Wicked Jazz Sounds," "Crooners Echo," "The Young Sinatras,” and “The Metropole Orchestra.”
​
His first solo EP 'High Or Low', (2023) recorded in his studio with a canal view in the heart of Amsterdam (NL), precedes his album 'Don't Explain' (2024), offering a fresh take on jazz, blues and funk classics. Don't Explain features a dynamic "live" trio, featuring Sebastiaan van Bavel on piano, Lean Robbemont on drums, and Paul himself on bass/guitar and vocals.
Paul seamlessly blends his passion for classic jazz with a deep appreciation for blues and soul, embodying a soulful crooner with an affinity towards slow grooves that provide ample room for heartfelt storytelling.
