Samuel Jersak was born in Tübingen and grew up in Reutlingen. He started to play classical music, as a teenager he played keyboards in rockbands and learned to play the church organ. At the age of 18 his love for jazz flared up, which led him to study jazz piano in Frankfurt, Cologne and Nuremberg. In 2007, the first CD "Journey To Sydney" by Samuel Jersak appeared in a pianotrio line-up. The song "Bridge By Night" climbed to #1 in the German itunes jazz charts. In 2009, the follow-up album “green land” was released, which presents itself as a consistent development of the first album and shows a mature, self-contained pianist who kindles dynamic fireworks with his trio. The songwriting of Samuel Jersak is deliberately simple and leaves lots of space for the band members to communicate and interact with each other. Thomas Siffling sums it up: "The composer and pianist Samuel Jersak succeeds the masterpiece of turning catchy, pop-oriented songs into music of unusual depth." In 2019 he released a piano solo album called "The Melody at Night, Without You". His next release is planned for early 2022. Stay tuned!
