Evert Woestenburg

Dutch guitarplayer from Volendam, the Netherlands. Born on 26-03-1947. He played guitar in the first incarnation of BZN, from the beginning in Juli 1965 until 20-09-1969, just before BZN started to become a little famous with their first recordings. He started the band along with Cees Tol, Jan Tuijp and his cousin Gerrit Woestenburg. He was replaced in 1969 by Thomas Tol, brother of Cees Tol. Evert plays on the first four BZN Polydor singles Maybe Someday / I Don't Want To Give Myself, Waiting For You / Mor'een, Coming To My Dreams / Every Day I Have To Cry and Gonna Take My Mind Off Maria / (I'm Gonna Be) Your Man. For the sixth Polydor single This Is What I Feel, an old bandphoto was used with Evert and Jaap 'Lood' Sombroek, but at that time Thomas Tol and Jan Keizer were already in the band.
