Concert
Friday, October 18, 19:30h, CCW
Old-school meets new-school and the sound mixes an authentic blues feeling with contemporary funkiness. Raphael Wressnig, who is known for his powerful playing and has been recognized by the
Critics Poll of the US jazz magazine “Down Beat” several times as Best Organ Player of the Year, represents an interface between soul, blues and funk rhythms. His unique, powerful playing on the original vintage Hammond organ has made him the epitome of a modern Hammond organist. What sounds so incredibly groovy, funky, soulful and bluesy needs excellent musicians who have all styles at their fingertips. He has been touring with guitarist Enrico Crivellaro and drummer Hans-Jürgen Bart for years. They combine a sense of rhythm with raw roots sounds and show how much soul and groove can be found in modern soul and blues. They will be supported by US singer Donniele Graves, who will pour out a huge portion of good humor on the visitors. The soul powerhouse hails from North Carolina and grew up with southern gospel. She is a unique singer who takes her audience by storm!
