“Their goal is money and power - and they’ll do anything to get it now. The ground is rumbling and shaking from the bombs that keep on falling down” - första singeln med Bror Gunnar Jansson & The Escapism som släpps nu idag inleds med maning att se makten vi dignar under. Varje rad på “Refuge” låter som att träffas av en gatupredikant som försöker riva tag i oss och bara har den nära spruckna rösten och och öronbedövande funkiga musiken att övertyga oss med. Det osannolika har en tendens att ske förr eller senare, men att ett Göteborgsband skulle dyka upp och inte bara förvalta den musik som Curtis Mayfield, Sly & The Family Stone såväl som neo-soulens hjältar givit världen utan även säga det kanske mest relevanta om världens tillstånd i popmusik 2025 var någon ingens stalltips vid årsskiftet.
Bror Gunnar Jansson sjunger med kraft om utsatthet, med patos mot makten och explicit om folkmord, hat och hur historien upprepar sig. Allt detta till musik som lockar oss in snarare än skrämmer. Som det ska vara med soul av högsta kaliber, musikens skönhet står aldrig i motsats till textens tyngd, tvärtom.
Första singeln ut från kommande albumet ”People!” som släpps den 12/9 på nystartade Hxng Jazz Records där labelns kreativa ledare Christopher Cantillo (Dina Ögon mfl) även varit med och spelat på plattan och varit producent tillsammans med Bror Gunnar.

Bror Gunnar Jansson Biography
New single "Refuge" out April 25th
Whether he’s all alone or together with a band, Swedish Bror Gunnar Jansson unleashes his unique blend of southern gothic, blues, stoner, folk, psych, soul and more. You're able to hear his music in movies and tv series such as “The Last Days of American Crime”, “Happy!” and “Damnation”. He has sold over 25000 physical albums, 8 million streams and has performed on Swedish and French national TV shows such as “Album de la Semaine” and “På Spåret”.
"...The singer stands out and offers a quasi deviant style, inspired by both Tom Waits, Nick Cave and US icons. He takes us into a strange tempest, an elsewhere that promises great surprises and especially an immense change of scenery. Bror Gunnar Jansson knows his limits and ignores them. Always in search of a form of transcendence, he invented his own Mississippi, his own poetry. It is this transcendence that makes the greatest force of this bluesman of another century. Constantly inspired by the throbbing rhythms of Afro-American music, it also draws on new seas and creates unlikely encounters. ..."
