Matti Klein is a brilliant jazz pianist, and a master of vintage keys Wurlitzer, Fender Rhodes, analog synthesizers). His current soul-jazz project is a unique groove assembly of vintage keys, bass clarinet/sax and drums.

"The groove pours out of every pore in the music and has an extremely contagious effect"

Klein has earned his reputation as one of the most interesting young groove jazz musicians on the German scene. He has toured worldwide with Ed Motta appearing in renowned clubs like Ronnie Scott's in London, the Blue Note in Tokyo, the Highline Ballroom in New York, as well as at international festivals such as Pori Jazz, Jazz in Marciac and the Leverkusener Jazztage.

"The soulful jazz mix that keyboardist Matti Klein serves with Lars Zander on saxophone and bass clarinet and drummer André Seidel, his partner from "Mo 'Blow" times, has addictive potential. The three musicians create a sound much bigger than a trio. Groove master Klein on the keys ensures the perfect dose of bass himself. With his left hand he plays a custom built Rhodes bass piano and produces a full, warm and round sound that has it all. (…) With their passionate reminiscences of the soul-jazz era, the three musicians received an enthusiastic response from the audience. This is mainly due to the groove, which pours out of every pore in the music and has an extremely contagious effect." – Kerstin Rickert
