Jazz at JAKI: Sebastian Gahler – Electric Stories

In the organizer's words:

20:00 I Concert I 💿 JAKI

High-energy jazz with depth -
"Electric Stories" - the new album by Düsseldorf jazz pianist Sebastian Gahler

Following the huge success of his Haruki Murakami-inspired album "Two Moons" (2022) - with over 10 million streams - Düsseldorf jazz pianist Sebastian Gahler is releasing his next album just two years later. "Electric Stories" offers groove-based high-energy jazz with depth and underlines Gahler's self-image as a versatile musical storyteller. Gahler goes electric: the sound setting is based on the electro, funk and fusion jazz of the 1960s and 70s, in which Gahler locates his musical roots, and traces role models such as Herbie Hancock's groundbreaking album "Head Hunters" (1973). To do this, Gahler switches from the classic grand piano to a castle of vintage keyboards. He combines the bell-like tines of a Fender Rhodes with the crisp punch of a Wurlitzer electric piano, mixes the floating vibrato of a Hammond B-3 organ with the warm lead sounds of a Moog synthesizer and adds the icing on the cake with the silvery sound of a Hohner String Performer.
