What a joy to welcome Nessi Gomes back in Amsterdam! As her concerts on 28 and 29 November were sold out in a blink of an eye and with 300 people on the waitinglist we decided to add a third concert on 27 November also in the beautiful heartspace of De Duif in Amsterdam.
Dutch singer/songwriter Loes Swinkels will open all the three evening for Nessi and multe-instrumental whizzard Praful will join Nessi on the stage as a special guest.
This is a standing concert with very limited seating (balcony only).
Nessi Gomes
Born on the tiny Island of Guernsey to a Portuguese family, Singer-Songwriter Nessi Gomes channels influences from both sides of her ethnicity, blending the essence of the traditional, emotional and ‘larger than life’ Fado folk music with British progressive modern inspiration.
Her acclaimed debut album Diamonds & Demons was released in October 2016 and received lots of media attention and radio support in Europe and the UK. Since she played in 30 countries including major festivals and stages.
Her debut album reveals an authentic and heartfelt search for light, depth, hope and truth; an artistic quest for love and trust. A series of intricately detailed, hauntingly atmospheric and lushly textured Avant-ballads. Here is a musician whose work obliquely references her travails and nods to Björk and Kate Bush but is uniquely her own, with Portuguese inflections and intimations of hope and dread.
Parallel she created the ever-growing Vocal Odyssey workshops and retreats that encourage participants to meet with the spirit of their voice. Thousands have already experienced the process under her guidance.
