"Hans Luchs has successfully assimilated the style of the guitarists of the Meters or Sly & The Family Stone, but also effectively moves jazz modeled on John Scofield." All About Jazz, Italia. Chicago-based guitarist and composer Hans Luchs makes his debut as a leader with a beautifully crafted, pulsating and wide-reaching set of original compositions, along with two classic ballads by Duke Ellington and Cole Porter. With some of Chicago's finest - drummer George Fludas, Clark Sommers on bass, Stu Mindeman on piano, and Shaun Johnson on trumpet - they explore the twists and turns of "Das Lumenmeister" and "Tuesday Night Delivery," and luxuriate in the classic "Get Out of Town," performed as a haunting ballad. To launch his recording career, Luchs has crafted a lyrical and mature musical statement.
