Dream Boat Jane

Why choose between folk poetry and hard rock, the freedom ofthe seventies and the edginess of the nineties, Irish harmoniesand American topography when you can mix it all up and spreadnew sprouts? Gunnar Ellwanger (voice, guitar), Jeff Preto (bass, voice) and David Jarry Lacombe (drums, voice): the sap of Gunwood flows from all three since their first steps as a group which, following the footsteps of bewitchers of the 2010's such as Alabama Shakes, Feist or the Black Keys, nowadays establishes itself as fine vibe crafters. Strong from the flock of praises and numerous concerts that followed the release of the striking Travelling Soul in 2017, the trio is coming back even stronger with a sophomore album produced by the sound wizard Jean Lamoot (Noir Désir, Alain Bashung). It symbolizes all the existing escapes, whether it be drugs, music, parties or travels… An ode to escapism and a title-track that leans on a feverish boogie blues and a slide guitar to take-off, as if exhilarated by freedom. Like a blazing fire, Gunwood continues to make its own path. 2022 must only let itself be guided by the thrilling aura of Dream Boat Jane.
