Niels Klein (Clarinets, Effects),
Lars Duppler (Rhodes, Synthesizers)
Hanno Busch (Guitar, Bass) and
Ralf Gessler (Drums)
Niels Klein’s quartet
Tubes & Wires is not your everyday line-up. With
Lars Duppler on e-piano and synthesizers,
Hanno Busch on guitar and bass,
Ralf Gessler on drums, and the bandleader on various clarinets, Klein presents forceful rock music that is played with the attitude of jazz musicians when it comes to instrumental technique. Saxophonist, clarinettist and composer Klein named his band and new CD somewhat jokingly
Tubes & Wires. ‘Tubes’ stands for the various clarinets that Klein plays and ‘Wires’ represents the many electronic, analogue and digital devices that connect with cables and drive his ‘effect clarinets’.
Niels Kleins Tubes & Wires presents a unique instrumental line-up based on electrified clarinets and analog synthesizers playing a weird indie-jazz-rock-music that won them an ECHO Jazz 2015. In spring 2017 the second album
Life in Times of the Big Crunch was released on Traumton Records.
This programme is part of the Annual Jazz Fest 2018, Kolkata.
