Johannes Ludwig - Vagabond Souls (2022) [Hi-Res]

Vagabond Souls brings together a group of friends in a fascinating constellation. Rocking groove context, outstanding melodic (songwriting) quality, at the core a jazz band with all improvisational freedoms - Johannes Ludwig has gathered a dream line-up around him and makes his most mature musical statement yet. Relaxed, to the point with the utmost naturalness, at the same time overflowing with energy and curiosity, everything played with huge ears for the overall organism, not a single note too much. Not only once the initial idea shines through: actually it's simply a pretty wacky blues album.
