EN short Throughout the years, Phishbacher has featured extraordinary staples of
both the US and European music scene. The band's latest line-up features
New York City based Yutaka Uchida, a highly sought-after musician in the
New York City jazz scene, on drums, and Germany based Goran Vujic on
bass, bringing some European flavor to the mix.
Phishbacher New York Electric Trio, the outfit around Austrian/New York pianist Walter Fischbacher, presents an infectiously grooving, wildly entertaining yet highly sophisticated set of original compositions and covers, ranging from the drum & bass version of the Beatles' "I Want You" to the Latin jazz tune "Valmez", via the gorgeously moody ballad "Mellow Moon Moaning". Throughout the years, Phishbacher has featured extraordinary staples of both the US and European music scene. The band's latest line-up features New York City based Yutaka Uchida, a highly sought-after musician in the New York City jazz scene, on drums, and Germany based Goran Vujic on bass, bringing some European flavor to the mix. The vibe of this outfit is distinctly funky, with Mr. Uchida providing an impossibly tight back beat to Mr. Vujic's thumping bass lines. Tenor saxophonist Sean Nowell from Birmingham, Alabama, is a frequently featured artist, his play steeped in the southern traditions of blues, gospel, jazz, and funk fused with the complex harmonic and world rhythmic concepts that permeate the music of New York City.. Merging distinct flavors from different corners of the world, this 2010 version of Phishbacher brings 70s Funk into the 21st Century.
DE - Herausragende Musiker der Europäischen und Amerikanischen Musikszene
haben über die Jahre bei Phishbacher mitgewirkt. Die jüngste Inkarnation
der Band bringt Yutaka Uchida, einen der gesuchtesten Musiker der New
York Jazz Szene, am Schlagzeug, und Goran Vujic, der in Deutschland lebt
und europäisches Flair in die Band einbringt, am Baß.
Le son de ce groupe est très nettement funky- le backbeat de M. Uchida associé à la basse de M. Vujic apporte un element de groove. En fusionnant diverses styles musicaux, cette édition 2010 de Phishbacher porte le funk des années 70 aux 21ieme siècle.
