Hoogste Tied veur de Blues plot

Singer and lyricist Daniel Lohues from Drenthe performed with his group SKIK during Pinkpop and Lowlands. His big dream is to perform at the North Sea Jazz Festival with his own blues band - in the Drenthe. Lohues travels to the mecca of the blues, the Mississippi Blues Delta. He meets special people, such as pop hero Tony Joe White, who wrote famous hits for Elvis and Tina Turner, and the ancient blues legend T Model Ford, who, to his own surprise, sings along with him in Drenthe. Through trial and error, the Lohues & The Louisiana Blues Club is created, which travels from 'poor' Louisiana to 'poor' Drenthe and to the end of the long-cherished dream, the international North Sea Jazz Festival. In addition to a musical adventure, the film also offers a portrait of a striking musician who is struggling with his chocolate addiction.
