Peter http://www.peterstruijk.com was born on March 28th in Gouda, the Netherlands. He grew up in and around The Hague.
As a child, he visited the local Jazz clubs with his parents, which he hated at first, but learned to appreciate over the years. At a young age he started out on the piano but after a while when his older brother gave him his first real guitar a new love was born!

After playing in a couple local blues bands‚ he now works under his own name as musician, teacher and producer. For his debut solo album “Human Ways” he recorded with Dutch blues greats Robbert Fossen, Little Boogie boy, Hammie van Hall, Peter van Zon, Dihl Bennink and the legendary Chicago blues singer Tail Dragger, with whom he also shared many times the stage at blues clubs in the “windy city” Chicago USA!

At this moment Peter is playing with harmonica player Peter van Zon as “Sweetback Petes” for a true Mississippi delta⁄Chicago experience and with allround bluesman Robbert Fossen as duo and as band formation under the name "Robbert Fossen & Peter Struijk" Check our website at www.chicagoblues.nl
