Get ready to groove with Dr. Leigh Pilzer , the Washington, D.C. baritone sax powerhouse who proves that jazz is meant to be a living, breathing party, not a dusty museum piece. Described as a pure force of nature with a gruff, punchy, and assertive sound, Leigh brings a heavy dose of soulful grit to the stage. She has traded licks with the legendary Smithsonian Jazz Masterworks Orchestra and even arranged horns for local legends like Chuck Brown and Eva Cassidy , and now she is bringing that deep, soulful swagger front and center with her vibrant new album, Keep Holding On. This record is a masterclass in pure, undeniable groove, packed with plenty of attitude, low-end bark, and raw energy that blues fans will instantly appreciate. Keep Holding On strikes the perfect balance between paying respect to the jazz heritage and absolutely cutting loose, making it an essential, high-energy addition to your playlist.   🎵 LISTEN & SUPPORT THE ALBUM   Keep Holding On by Leigh ...

Henrik Freischlader


Born: Wuppertal, West Germany

November 3, 1982

Genre Style: Blues, blues rock, jazz, funk, soul

Henrik Freischlader is a standout German blues guitarist, singer, and songwriter who has spent two decades building a massive reputation in the European blues-rock scene. Born on November 3, 1982, in Cologne, he is a completely self-taught musician who picked up the guitar at age 14 after falling in love with Gary Moore's music. He didn't stop at just the guitar, though; he also taught himself to play the bass, drums, and keys. By 2004, he formed the Henrik Freischlader Band, officially launching his career as a professional live performer.
His sound is a cool, groove-heavy mix of old-school blues blended with rock, soul, funk, and jazz. Fans love him for his incredibly expressive guitar playing and his raw, gravelly voice, which often reminds people of legends like Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimi Hendrix. Henrik is also famously a one-man studio crew. On several of his albums, he wrote every song and personally played every single instrument on the recording. To keep absolute control over his creative vision, he even runs his own independent record label called Cable Car Records.
When he is not in the studio, Henrik is almost always out on the road. He lives for live performances and has shared stages with blues icons like Joe Bonamassa, BB King, and Johnny Winter. Whether he is playing a massive music festival or a packed, sweaty club, his live shows are known for being incredibly passionate and high-energy.
