Anne Bakker is a professional viola/violin player , composer and singer-songwriter who is active in a wide range of musical genres. In 2018 she released her first EP titled ‘Vox/Viola’, in which she combines her voice with the deeper sound of the viola, creating a well crafted musical combination.

Also she used to be main vocalist for the Dutch electronic band Quibus, and toured in Europe and Australia with Australian artist Toby. With the Göksel Yilmaz Ensemble, Anne plays Turkish oriented music. They released two albums and toured in Europe, Turkey and Indonesia in collaboration with the Internationaal Danstheater. Also, she often collaborates with renowned electronic/noise artist Machinefabriek. Together they released over 10 records and were positively reviewed by international magazines such as The Wire.

As a composer/producer, Anne has been writing for several films and theatre productions. Among them are ‘Nooit meer over praten’ (documentary) and theatre production ‘Van Mij’ (Theatergroep Gnaffel).
