Kenny Colombo Combo, Bubblegum Girl, Boris de Ruijter
If jazz music videos are non-existent, Bubblegum Girl by The Kenny Colombo Combo is an exception to that rule. The video was directed by young Dutch director Boris de Ruijter and recorded at the Bimhuis, an internationally renowned jazz venue in Amsterdam.
Bubblegum Girl is a poetical documentary portrait of the city of Amsterdam, as seen through the eyes of a young and naïve, bubblegum chewing girl. The video pays homage to photographer Ed van der Elsken's movie "My Amsterdam".
Bubblegum Girl is a composition by saxophonist Olaf Zwetsloot. The video was produced at almost no budget.
