Raphael Wressnig is a Hammond B-3 organ passionate lover and a virtuoso of the instrument, who devotes himself body and soul to spreading and popularizing its sound. Besides, he is a master of groove, he performs like no one else, although he also explores other genres like jazz, funk, blues or rhythm & blues.

Raphael has released a good number of albums, both solo and together with other musicians. Now he presents his last one, a totally instrumental album where he develops a vintage sound but, at the same time, full of energy, which makes songs have a classic air, but very contemporary as well, where ballads are tastefully mixed with funk or boogaloo rhythms.

Raphael often says that carrying a 193 kilos Hammond B-3 to every gig requires real commitment and enthusiasm that, in his case, is undeniable. And the truth is that when he sits in front of the instrument, Wressnig communicates all the passion he puts in his performing, that connects the old sounds with the new music of the 21st century, opening new paths and horizons for this iconic instrument, which confirms his quality and incredible technique, something that make his music transcend and become universal, for the delight of different generations of Hammond B-3 lovers.

The album gathers nine songs, six of them Raphael’s own compositions, where Wressnig is backed by two excellent musicians like Enrico Crivellaro on guitars and Hans-Jürgen Bart on drums. Together, they present a varied, timeless and elegant album, with a high-quality performance, that will surely satisfy those listeners who are looking for a first-class recording.
