Jazz concert by C.A.R.

C.A.R. includes:
  • Leonhard Huhn — saxophone, electronics
  • Christian Lorenzen — wurlitzer, synthesizers
  • Kenn Hartwig — double bass, effects
  • Johannes Klingebiel — drums

Four young musicians transform their musical faith into C.A.R, a quest for musical spirituality.  With flaming empathy they develop a trip-like melange of jazz and electronics, improvisation and experiment, science fiction and film noir, krautrock and cyberpunk. Gleaming energy, kaleidoscopic thoughtfulness, subtle finesse and an undeniable love for the beat — capitalization of an intoxicating mix: C.A.R.
 
C.A.R. was founded in 2011 by Johannes Klingebiel and Kenn Hartwig in Cologne, Germany. Originally a quintet playing wild experimental jazz music with a pop approach, they eventually kicked the guitar and found their strength to be a subtly flowing melange of kraut-like arrangements infused with electronic and jazz sounds.
