Andreas Öberg | Six String Evolution – [Resonance Records, 2010] – Review

Perhaps “exemplary” is the word that describes this extraordinary young guitar player from Stockholm, Sweden named Andreas Öberg and his amazing sophomore album titled “Six String Evolution” on Resonance Records.

“Six String Evolution” was ingeniously produced from the able minds of two musical surgeons George Klabin and Joe Donofrio. At the helm of this project, this duo brilliantly executes their craft to develop and feature an impressive cast of who’s who among the heavyweights in jazz including pianist Dave Kikoski, bassist John Patitucci, Leon Nash plays drums along with gifted singer/saxophonist Darmon Meader (New York Voices), vocalist/percussion Filo Machado, bassist Decebal Badila, cimbalom player Marius Preda and finally vibraharpist John Beasley.

Andreas Öberg - Six String Evolution

Andreas Öberg is quickly becoming one of the most admired jazz guitar players on the planet, and Six String Evolution, his second CD for Resonance Records, represents yet another remarkable step in his international ascendance.

Don Heckman, writing in the Los Angeles Times, has noted that “Öberg has mastered everything from bebop and swing to bossa nova, Gypsy jazz and fusion, enhanced with youthful, rock-driven vigor. His playing is at times an astonishing display of virtuosity.”
