Eric Vloeimans is widely recognized as one of Europe's best and most versatile performers. As a composer he has conceived an evocative, harmonic language of his own. His writing is fresh and creative, yet with great feeling and respect for tradition. His talent and the expressive power of Vloeimans' music have been honoured by his winning the Dutch Edison Award four times, the Elly Ameling Prize of the City of Rotterdam, the Boy Edgar Award and the prestigious Bird Award at the North Sea Jazz Festival.
He also received the Oeuvre Prize of the Province of South Holland in 2011, and won the "Gouden Notenkraker 2011" (Golden Nutcracker), a coveted award voted for by his peers in music and television.
In Eric Vloeimans' Gatecrash, he expands his trumpet mastery with electronic special effects. The band has earned a reputation as one of Europe's top crossover bands and their music ranges from lazy lounge music to hard-core uptempo beats and spaced out moods, with Zappa-influenced odd meters.
