Birdcatcher – Birdcatcher II
ROEL SPANJERS presents: BIRDCATCHER II
With the release of his new solo album Birdcatcher II, keyboardist/vocalist Roel Spanjers delivers on a long-awaited promise: the successor to the obscure masterpiece Birdcatcher (2006).
Pianist and soulful Hammond player Spanjers is a much sought-after live and studio (session) musician in the European rhythm & blues, soul and roots/Americana scene. He has toured with artists as diverse as Luther Allison, Terry Evans, Normaal, Frédérique Spigt, JW Roy, Dayna Kurtz, Curtis Salgado, Smokey Wilson, Roscoe Chenier and many others.
Birdcatcher II will be released in September 2024 on Suburban Records and will contain ten new ‘roots noir’ songs. Recorded with guitarist/multi-instrumentalist Eric van Dijsseldonk, drummer/producer Gabriel Peeters and some guests, including soul singer Malford Milligan from Texas. The album was mastered by Kevin Reeves in Nashville.
Wander through a rich musical landscape that sounds familiar but fortunately leaves much to the imagination. You hear echoes of Bobby Charles, Hi Records Soul from Memphis, Americana à la The Band and the New Orleans of Allen Toussaint. Truly an album full of varied songs that are strongly connected musically, thematically and atmospherically and in which tradition is honored in a fresh and personal way.
