Jupiter (part 1)

**Blaudzun's** fifth full-length release, *'Jupiter'* is an album in three parts. *'Part I'* is a full LP with nine songs which all have a fresh sound with melodic eighties guitars, driving drums and a baritone-saxophone. The title of the trilogy refers to planet *'Jupiter'*, the largest planet and the fifth planet in line from the sun. For the recordings on this album **Blaudzun** changed his usual modus operandi of working solo or with just one musician at a time. He invited his key players, including his captain **Tom Swart** (piano), his brother **Jakob Sigmond** (guitars) and new drummer **Simon Levi** (known from *William Fitzsimmons* and *Bonne Aparte)* to come and record all at the same time.

*'Jupiter'* reflects the way **Blaudzun** absorbs art and music: *'Music can be a lifesaver'*.
