Anton Goudsmit (guitar)is a much sought after player who does amazing things with whatever music he is presented with or writes. In 2001 he formed the Ploctones to perform a series of his compositions commissioned by Dutch NPS Radio. In 2004 former VPRO radio presenter Rene de Rooij organised a live cd recording at the Jazz op het Dak festival, an event directed by him and featured on VPRO television. Under De Rooij's management the Ploctones has emerged as a very creative and innovative group that is capable of combining grooves and improvisation. The highly inflammable drumming of Martijn Vink, the solid and virtuoso bass playing of Jeroen Vierdag and the intelligent approach of Efraim Trujillo on sax, upgrade Anton's music and give this band it's unique sound.
