Elliot Muusses

The young and very talented Elliot Muusses began to play the guitar when he was nine years old and four years later, he formed already his first rock band (typical 'dromedary-ish'!). But the acoustic music still enchanted him. He loves the liberating feeling that no cable nor electricity is needed to be able to play "anywhere and anytime"! (that's of course easy talking if you don't play the organ or something …).
He played in many formations, many of them tango projects, but as a real dromedary, he's curious for anything and he enjoys playing jazz, gipsy music, bluegrass as well as bossa nova.
He played with Guitarras Tango under the guidance of Kay Sleking, Los Taitas with Hernán Ruiz, the new quintet of our dromedary bandoneon player Santiago Cimadevilla and he played in many theaters from Europe to Buenos Aires.
He studied tango music in Rotterdam with Kay Sleking and Gustavo Beytelmann and jazz guitar at the Amsterdam Conservatory with Maarten van der Grinten, Jesse van Ruller and Martijn van Iterson and achieved his diploma in june 2010. But in 2009 he won already the Doble Ocho prize, a contest for original arrangements of a traditional tango … and that's only the beginning of Elliot's 'happy adventures'!
(… a pity that he doesn't play the organ though…)
