Catmosphere - Smiles and Tears (2021) Hi-Res

Music on the border between pop and jazz: a gripping voice with a lot of soul, expression, energy and warmth, catchy melody lines, colored harmonies and plenty of space for creative improvisation.

Artists like Jamie Cullum, Esperanza Spalding or Gregory Porter have shown it: Pop meets jazz - strong melodies carried by a warm, expressive voice, colored harmonies, underlaid with refined grooves and garnished with sparkling improvisations. It is precisely these qualities that characterize the new band Catmosphere. The core of the repertoire is made up of original original compositions with lyrics that describe all the ups and downs in life. In addition, there are their own creative jazz versions of pop songs from the 1980s.

The band develops and presents a repertoire full of intensity and musical explosive power, ranging from sensitive ballads to funky groovy numbers.
