Theo Bleckmann - At Night '2014

Tracks list

... Cinematic and transporting are not descriptive enough adjectives to apply.
Not only is the music a soundtrack to a yet existent motion picture, it is
inspiration enough for its own film. Not only will hearing stir each listener
into their own voyage, it will propel them to other journeys.
- All About Jazz

Theo Bleckmann is the renaissance man of contemporary vocal performance, an
emotional jazz singer who is willing to try wild ideas on this 2007 album like
processing his voice through an electronically altered toy megaphone or a
plunger. Guitarist Ben Monders peers hold him in considerable awe for his sound,
now completely his own, as his long fingers stretch across strings and frets to
create chords never heard before. At Night is a study in contrasts that flow
together into a unified statement, bound by the recurring texts of Sufi poet
Rumi.
