York Ostermayer embodies Hannover's soul and jazz DNA. The multi-instrumentalist, composer, and producer worked for years as a sought-after sideman on saxophone and flute for scene heavyweights like Randy Crawford, Phil Collins, Mousse T., and Jazzkantine. In the early 2020s, he produced the album "The SoulJazz Experience" and assembled a great band to indulge his passion for soul and jazz. Part of this "Experience" are the occasionally inserted scratches, with which York reveals his secret love for DJing, and the vocal performance of Hamburg's exceptional artist Ulita Knaus.

Ulita Knaus is among the most significant singers in Germany. Across now eight albums, she has gathered a wide repertoire ranging from swinging scat singing to tastefully chart-friendly songs. She is a boundary-crosser between singer-songwriter and jazz, writing her own intimate songs and transforming compositions by others into personal statements through impressive staging artistry.

Line-Up:

York (saxophone, flute, DJing), Ulita Knaus (vocals), Ralph König (guitar), Martin Meyer (keyboards), Christian Decker (bass), Kristof Hinz (drums)
