English:

After the surprising success of of his debut “Down to the Delta (2005)“ which was reviewed as album of the month in the German Bluesnews, and his follow up ”Travellin”(2007), the south-german guitarist arrives on tour with a fresh album. On his new CD “Desire”(2008, Zyx/Peppercake) “this man aims to entertain in a fantastic manner. No matter if he..s moving on soulful, funky or rootsrocking pathways. The Blues is the foundation on which he builds.” (Rocktimes)

At his energy driven concerts, which he celebrates with an “empathetic and earthy voice” (Bluesmagazine, France), he presents his typical musical interpretation of Blues and Blue moods, between Delta and New Orleans, from Shuffle to Funk. Conscious of tradition – but yet modern, his voice and guitar form an energetic and emotional unity and appear magically linked.

On stage he..s supported by two longtime companions, Michael Siegwart (Drums) and Frowin Ickler (Bass): “Tight and compact, always keeping the groove in the centre” (Concerto, Austria), this rhythm section after 600 gigs runs like a machine. “This trio starts where others play their encore”, the Rheinpfalz wrote in an euphoric critique. Here comes a band that’s grown, suffered, partied and lived together.

A band that interprets the Blues always new, but always remains faithful to its melancholic and emotional soul.

Francais:

Avant le succès de ‘’Down To The le delta’’ (2005), que BluesNews a élu « album du mois », et de son successeur ‘’Travellin'’’ (2007), le guitariste originaire d'Allemagne du Sud a fait ses débuts comme Sideman pour des stars comme Chris Norman (Smokie) ou Kathy Kelly (Kelly Family). Avec ‘’Desire’’ (2008, Zyx/Peppercake), troisième album du trio blues de Bad Bergzabern, Timo Gross ‘’affirme sa créativité et démontre la maitrise qu’il a de son instrument, teinté de Soul, de Funk ou de Roots, il reste toujours à l’aise et le Blues reste sa marque de fabrique’’(Rocktimes)

Lors de ses concerts énergiques, ‘’ *sa+ voix sensible et terreuse, une finesse d'exécution sur sa strato, font que l'on est envoûté “ (Bluesmagazine, France) son interprétation musicale typique du blues et du Blue Moods, entre le Delta et la New Orleans, entre Shuffle et Funk, reste ancrée dans les racines et pourtant, est d’une modernité indéniable. La voix et la guitare forment une unité, énergiques et chargées d'émotion, liées l’une avec l’autre.

Il est soutenu sur scène par ses deux compères de toujours, la section rythmique dont il ne sépare pas, Michael Siegwart (batterie) et Frowin Ickler (basses) , avec qui il a joué plus de 600 concerts comme une machine bien huilée - dont deux Tournées couronnées de succès en Ecosse et en Angleterre comme le "premier Bluesband allemand“ (BluesNews) .

Hi Timo- merci! Übrigens, wenn du manchmal auch Resonator-Gitarren spielst, da gibt's nen Gitarrenbauer in Gimmeldingen, Peter Wahl, hat auch schon an Jan J. Liefers, Otto W. Gitarren verkauft... und kennt Abi Wallenstein und überhaupt so ziemlich alles im Bluesbereich...
