Joscho Stephan • Guitar Heroes

 

 

Joscho Stephan is well known on the international guitar scene as one of the most creative gypsy-swing players. With a powerful tone and remarkable technical skills, he has an instantly recognizable voice on his instrument. He’s also not afraid to combine gypsy swing with a lot of different styles, like klezmer, pop or classical music.

One of Joscho’s longtime dreams has been to record an album of songs written by his “guitar heroes.” When he started to work on the project, he thought it would be even more fun to invite the “heroes” of the current guitar scene to the studio with him. So on this new record, Joscho is joined by three world-class guitarists — Australian guitar legend Tommy Emmanuel, Dutch gypsy swing icon Stochelo Rosenberg, and French “guitar phenomenon” Biréli Lagréne. Together, they present Joscho’s own compositions, along with famous tunes in the style of gypsy swing with rock, jazz, and funk influences. The album includes pieces written by such great guitarists as Django Reinhardt, Carlos Santana and George Harrison, plus pieces successfully interpreted by the likes of Jimi Hendrix (“Hey Joe”) and George Benson (“Breezin”).

Joscho Stephan es conocido en la escena internacional de la guitarra como uno de los músicos más creativos del movimiento gitano. Con un tono poderoso y notables habilidades técnicas, tiene una voz instantáneamente reconocible en su instrumento. Tampoco tiene miedo de combinar el swing gitano con muchos estilos diferentes, como el klezmer, el pop o la música clásica.

Uno de los sueños de Joscho ha sido grabar un álbum de canciones escritas por sus "guitar heroes". Cuando empezó a trabajar en el proyecto, pensó que sería aún más divertido invitar al estudio con él a los "héroes" de la escena guitarrística actual. Así que en este nuevo disco, Joscho está acompañado por tres guitarristas de clase mundial - la leyenda de la guitarra australiana Tommy Emmanuel, el icono del swing gitano holandés Stochelo Rosenberg, y el "fenómeno de la guitarra" francés Biréli Lagréne. Juntos, presentan las composiciones propias de Joscho, junto con famosas melodías al estilo del swing gitano con influencias de rock, jazz y funk. El álbum incluye piezas escritas por grandes guitarristas como Django Reinhardt, Carlos Santana y George Harrison, además de piezas interpretadas con éxito por Jimi Hendrix ("Hey Joe") y George Benson ("Breezin").
