Raphael Wressnig Biography

Raphael Wressnig is not your ordinary B-3 organ player. He confidently brings out the inherent pyrotechnic power and mightiness of the large B-3 console and he is proud of his central role in performing what he calls “heavy organ soul & funk”. The majestic instrument, the Hammond organ, replaces the singer and plays the leads while its bass register locks in with the drums and carries the band. Wressnig concocts exciting mixed-genre music from his fervid imagination. His fluency in soul, funk, jazz and blues has garnered him the attention of an international claque of critics and multiple nominations, over the past decade, for both the DownBeat Critics and Readers Polls as “Best Organ Player of the Year”.


From New Orleans-style funk to soul and rhythm & blues, Wressnig’s percussive and greasy Hammond sounds conjure dynamic, high-voltage
music. Old-school and new-school rendezvous in his style and his sound combines an authentic soul & blues vibe and a “lowdown” feel with a contemporary funk edge for a unique listening experience. Together with his co-conspirators - The Soul Gift Band - he shows the
bright potential of soul, blues and funk in a modern world and will give the audience a new way to experience these old genres. Raw and hard-hitting, the nucleus of the band features the skills of celebrated guitarist Enrico Crivellaro and drummer Hans-Jürgen
Bart, with the frequent addition of a horn section and vocalists.


There are about 20 albums in his catalog including two live records and highlights such as “Soul Gumbo” or “Chicken Burrito”. “Soul
Gumbo” was recorded in New Orleans and features prominent luminaries from the Crescent City like Grammy winner Jon Cleary, George Porter, Jr. (The Meters), drummer Stanton Moore and R&B legend Walter “Wolfman” Washington. “Chicken Burrito” is a tour de force
in groove featuring longtime collaborator Alex Schultz on guitar and legendary funk drummer James Gadson. “The trio moves with virtuosic ease while the groove never stops” (DownBeat Magazine)
