With his latest coup, guitarist Michael Bucher stirs up big emotions and dangerous grooves. The Voodoo Trio is behind it all. With this new lineup, Bucher moves hypnotically between rhythmic conciseness and grandiose clouds of sound; between urgency and looseness; and between speed and emphasis. The focus is on the simultaneity of accessibility and depth, as well as spontaneity and awareness of form.
Alongside Bucher are the two Voodoo magicians, Patrick Sommer (bass) and Lionel Friedli (drums), who also work their magic. Together, they impress with their exuberant joy of playing, rousing groove euphoria, and interactive energy. They don't get bogged down in their improvisations but instead arrive at sensible ideas without unnecessary banter.
Bucher has composed a varied repertoire for this group, characterized by an absence of nerdy over-complexity. The Voodoo Trio sparks enthusiasm wherever jazz lives and thrives. In other words, they engage in a wide-awake and independent dialogue with tradition. The Voodoo Trio has something to say and does so in a language anyone who loves jazz can understand.
