Lars Kutschke was lucky enough to study blues, gospel and soul at the source. As guitarist and musical director for singer Sharrie Williams, he has been touring the USA and around the world for years. For his album "While We're Here" he gathered musical friends and companions from the international music scene such as Tad Robinson, Kirk Fletcher, Alberto Marsico and Alex Schultz to record seven of his own compositions and interpret three of his favorite songs. Due to the many guests present on almost every track, the recording never becomes a “guitarist album”. The tonal palette ranges from lavishly instrumented soul tracks with brass sections and strings to the classic organ trio and earthy power trio.
