Michelle David & The True-Tones

Upon looking for the roots of their beloved musical genres (Rhythm & Blues, R&R Soul) founding members Onno Smit and Paul Willemsen discovered the Gospel music performed by the likes of The Soul Stirrers, The Zion Travelers, Sister Rosetta Tharpe and Shirley Ann Lee. Captivated by the pure energy of these songs, they decided to make their own version together with Michelle David (USA). In the past five years the band successfully embraced various influences stretching from traditional Gospel to Afrofunk, Soul to Calypso and Moroccan Gnawa. These variations resulted in five albums that perfectly captured the journey’s discoveries.The new name allows them to continue expanding and integrating more musical influences that compliment their style. The band assures fans and those alike that although the name changes, the substance remains the same. This is a 18+ event.
