Paul Scheepmaker & Agnes Gosling

Guitarist/composer Paul Scheepmaker, studied at Utrecht Conservatory and at the Hilversum Conservatory. In 1990 he graduated as a classical guitarist with a minor in jazz.

In the 1990s Scheepmaker worked as a session guitarist for several national stars and was also a member of several heavy bands. He regularly releases albums through his own record label, ‘GUEZ Records Ind.’, with his own compositions often in completely different styles. Last year, Scheepmaker arranged and performed an album with surviving works by the late composer Jurriaan Steen: ‘De Sista Danserna’.

O FINO DA BOSSA is his Latin project. The debut album Na Rede Da Varanda was presented in Paradiso in 2013. Positive reviews followed in De Telegraaf (4 stars), Jazzism, Maxazine, Written in Music, Guitarist and other media. The follow-up album will soon be released, featuring singers Agnes Gosling, Lilian Vieira, Sanne van Delft, Joos Hassing, among others.

Singer Agnes Gosling, born and raised in Amsterdam, lives in Rotterdam, where she also obtained her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Brazilian music at the conservatory there.
With Brazilian pianist Luís Rabello, Gosling released the EP Cançao in 2017, featuring previously unreleased works by Brazilian composer Radamés Gnatalli. From her album Caçador, the song Bianca was picked up by Tokyo Dawn Records. The track appeared on Volume 4 of their well-known series of compilation albums ‘the Heart’. “What a brilliant track by Agnes Gosling – this is overwhelming!” wrote 1Live Radio Deutschland after listening.

In 2017, Gosling signed a contract with Buzz Records of the Dutch jazz label Challenge Records. Gosling has performed on many Dutch stages, including Lantaren Venster, de Doelen, the North Sea Jazz Club, Splendor and the Beauforthuis. She won the Summer Terrace competition, was runner-up at the Latin Fanatics competition and played live on several radio programs including Opium and Radio 6.
