Tribute to Booker T. & The M.G.'s
A well-known jazz band from the USA is visiting Hotel Hehrne. A unique opportunity to experience an international jazz name in a close and warm environment.
Booker T. & the M.G.'s were one of the most influential bands of the 60s and 70s in the USA. As the house band at the legendary STAX studio in Memphis, they set the sound for an entire era, backing such greats as Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Sam & Dave and Albert King. At the same time, they themselves created timeless instrumental classics such as Green Onions, Time Is Tight, Soul Limbo, Hip-Hug Her and Hang 'Em High.
This evening, their music is celebrated by four highly accomplished Swedish musicians: Bo Hansson (Hammond organ), Lars Mellqvist (bass), Henrik Pilquist (guitar) and Roger Mörck (drums).
With the Hammond organ at the center, the quartet offers a swinging and respectful interpretation of Booker T. & the M.G.'s most iconic songs - an instrumental journey to the golden age of soul and funk. Between songs, there is also the opportunity for stories about the band's history, members and music.
