Simply explosive!
Enough jazz know-how to fill an encyclopedia, enough confidence to not care. Philip Gropper’s Philm is a rare bomb of energy. Intricate melodies turned upside down and explored to the limits – anchored in 60’s jazz, but still modern. Sometimes intimate and introvert, mostly rebellious and extrovert. Alongside Gropper Philm features Elias Stemeseder on piano and synthesizer, Robert Landfermann on bass and Oliver Steidle on drums.
