Sebastian Böhlen Quartet - Miscela

On November 7th 2014 my longtime musical comrade Sebastian Böhlen is releasing a new quartet CD including his new challenging, contemporary originals. We recorded at the famous old radio studios in Berlin. Besides Sebastian on guitar and me on tenor and soprano saxophone it features Jakob Dreyer on bass and Peter Gall on drums. The CD is going to be released on LAIKA records.
