United by a shared love of performing bluesy, soulful music in the most intimate and acoustic of settings, Blicher Hemmer Gadd’s hard-swinging 3rd album - Get The Motor Runnin’ - recreates the excitement and energy of the late-night sets they’ve performed around the world together. “loaded with energy, passion and creativity...so tight!" - Jazzwise Magazine Formed after a chance encounter more than 5 years ago, drum legend Steve Gadd, Danish Grammy-winning saxophonist Michael Blicher and hammond-wizard Dan Hemmer continue with this joyful project, which has flourished despite the 3,000+ miles, 40+ years and 3 busy touring schedules which separate them. In fact, so integral is that ‘live’ element to the band that half of the albums tracks were recorded on tour, in front of an audience. Saxophonist Michael Blicher’s lyrical compositions bring out the soul of the band, providing the perfect foundation for the dazzling interplay and and heartfelt improvisations that follow. The vibrating drum skins, the bamboo of the saxophone reed and the tone wheels of a 50 year-old Hammond organ combine to give a collection of songs both respectful of the past and fresh for 21st Century ears.
