Bob Dylan will celebrate his 70th birthday in 2011 which will give rise to Dylan cover bands and acts performing at festivals and events all around the world.

One such performer is Dutch singer Jacques Mees- 3rd place winner in the "Battle of the Bands 2010" Dylan cover competition organized by DylanRadio.com. Jacques has recently released his new Dylan tribute album "Shooting Star" which has already received great acclaim worldwide.

Why not book an evening at your venue, festival, bar or private living room and enjoy the most beautiful of Dylan songs sung by Jacques Mees solo or with his band.

The press about Shooting Star:

Jacques can be the BOB for me,  I know my song well before I start singing

( Bert van de Kamp – previously Muziekkrant Oor, author )

An album straight form the heart which will appeal not just to lovers of Dylan

( Johan Schoenmakers – Altcountryforum)

His beautifully frayed voice lends itself perfectly to the repertoire of the master, and the acoustic approach emphasises the song writing even more.

The instrumentation is fascinating throughout and and as a result the album flies by. A more than commendable tribute to the king of the topical song.

( Hans van Deelen - New Folk Sounds )

Mees remains with his interpretation close to the core of Dylan’s music
