INTENSIVSTATION: John Schröder / Wolfgang Zwiauer / Alfred Vogel - POWWOW​!​!​! (BOOMSLANG RECORDS November 9, 2018)


“It is a very rare thing to hear complex music being played in such a relaxed and soulful manner” (jazzthing, Götz Bühler) 

John Schröder is a multiinstrumentalist and kind of a Free Jazz Godfather from Berlin. No matter if he is playing drums for Nils Wogram or guitar for Erdmann 3000, nor piano in his trio – he is always on the edge of artistry! In this certain trio, John is featured on 3 instruments which he is playing simultaneously. So the band sometimes sounds like a quartet or even quintet. Wolfgang Zwiauer on bass is probably one of the most desired musicians in Switzerland and together with Alfred Vogel the two men lay down serious multi-time layered grooves. 

Their second album POWWOW!!! will be released in Jan 2019 (Boomslang Records / distributed by Galileo Music GmbH.

Along comes 12 tracks monthly as a digital release starting November 2018 at this very place since the 3 doctores recorded so much music in the last 3 years which they like to share with you.
