Close your eyes and when you hear his voice it's as if you are listening to him.

Open your eyes, look towards the stage and you think it's really him: Neil Young. 

You keep thinking this until he starts to speak and you realize, its not Neil Young but Gerry Wolthof from Veendam.

Wolthof has been working his way along the musical trail sinc1985. 

 In that year he was a finalist in Hennie Huisman's 'Sound mix show' on Dutch television,  where he finished at an honorable 3rd place. 

You can guess which song Wolthof sang. Of course it was 'Comes a time' from Neil Young.

Wolthof starts performing more as the Dutch Neil Young and his shows are a huge success.   

Yet he wants something more: his own band with their own sound. Wolthof starts to gather musicians around himself and starts performing with diverse bands. 

With Still Going West he releases the CD's 'Seven to Seven' and 'After the Concert'. 

Both albums get great reviews and sell well.

Yet Wolthof can't forget his idol Neil Young. 

Logical, his voice and appearance remind every concert visitor of the singer of the last century.

And so, more than fifteen years after his television debut as the Dutch Neil Young, Wolthof is back as Neil Young, and how!!!

Together with Hemmo Barla (guitar, vocals), Ad Antonisse (bass, vocals), and drummer Bert Stadman, Gerry Wolthof - (vocals, guitar, keyboard and harmonica) now also performs beside Still Going West, as the..........NEIL YOUNG MIRROR BAND

NEIL YOUNG MIRROR BAND

A treat for the eyes and ears.  

Neil Young is back in Holland.  

And even if he does hail from Veendam.  

That's a big compliment.
