Tip Jar

"Welcome! We are Tip Jar, and we write and perform melodic songs on the hippie side of country, spiced with some pop, folkrock and jazz influences. The band is an international collective of musical friends around Bart de Win and Arianne Knegt: ranging from americana heroes as their Texan friends Walt Wilkins and Bill Small, to the Dutch snare magicians Harry Hendriks and Joost van Es. Tip Jar’s very unique and contagious americana and their love for American roots music already got us a stage at legendary places like Gruene Hall and Luckenbach and secured us a spot in the line up of several music festivals in Texas." ~ Arianne & Bart, Tip Jar

Americana Highways magazine summons it all up, “Warm folky melodies that while pulled from a vintage source never sound too retro, because that’s the talent that this expressive band provides. The songwriting is strong and actually better than many American counterparts who wallow in cliches. The overall presentation is bold and flavorful like the finest food. The musicianship is always stellar. The band may be foreign, but their infectious americana has caught the deep ears of audiences in Texas and that’s a hard group to impress."

New album, "Road Of No Return", will be available on CD and LP on Deecmber 14th, 2024, and the digital release is set to January 10th, 2025.
