Raphael Wressnig & The Soul Gift Band

Raphael Wressnig has become the epitome of a modern Hammond organist through his unique, powerful playing on the original vintage Hammond. The Styrian musician has already been nominated 5 times for "Best Organ Player of the Year" at the Critics Poll of DownBeat magazine. "Soul Gumbo" was created in New Orleans (with Walter "Wolfman" Washington, Grammy winner Jon Cleary, Stanton Moore and funk pioneer and founder of "The Meters", George Porter, Jr. ) and for the latest album, "Chicken Burrito" Wressnig was in the studio in Los Angeles with legendary drummer James Gadson (Bill Withers, Aretha Franklin, Quincy Jones, Paul McCartney, D'Angelo, Eddie Harris and many more).
