Mats Ingvarsson: Hope

Mats Ingvarsson is a bassplayer who has acquired his musical overview from the driver seat next to the drummer in many and diverse contexts. Here he has gathered an electric quartet to inject some HOPE. His deep roots in soul and funk as well as love for acoustic jazz has led him to collect some originals and pair them with a few covers to make an eclectic album. There are guest appearances from hornplayers and Mats sings on some tracks when the quartet isn't shining on its own.
