About Olivier Vander Bauwede
Vander Bauwede’s official biography traces his start in the Ghent blues scene, later jazz study at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, and work on both chromatic and diatonic harmonica. It identifies a practice extending into folk, pop, rock, and world music.[1]
His official project guide separates Room 13, Tamala, duo work, and his own quartet and quintet. The artist-linked Bandcamp edition Live From Room 13 and his official channel provide direct listening to those different settings.[2][3]
