Feliciati, Hallebeek, and Voskuil Release “Bumerang”
Three years ago, bassist Lorenzo Feliciati met guitarist Richard Hallebeek and drummer Niels Voskuil to perform at the 2017 North Sea Jazz Festival. The trio kept in touch and soon began collaborating on an album. Now that project has come to fruition with Bumerang, an album recorded in 2018 and 2019 that blends jazz and rock in compositions written by all three members.
“The cd has been recorded in three big studios over the course of 2 years,” the band shares. “It seems to be rare these days that musicians actually play together when one can merely overdub on recordings sent back and forth through the internet. Although that’s a great technical solution, the three musicians from Bumerang actually played together in the studio and also live on stage, giving an edge of joy and interplay to the music that would otherwise not be achieved.”
Their writing style leans toward the heavier side of things, with Feliciati’s muscular playing and big tone driving the grooves. Check out “Friday At Last!”:
Bumerang is available now on CD from Hallebeek’s website. A digital format will be coming soon.
