The Kassel band "Rocktail" serves up a spicy mix of soul and funk with rocky undertones on their album "A New Morning". Bass, drums and congas provide the pleasantly pushing rhythm. The harmonious instrumentation consists of guitar, keyboards and brass section. The soulful but also powerful vocals of Jörn Birkenstock and Beatrice Przybilla transport the poetic messages of the songs in a congenial way.
In terms of content, the German lyrics, all penned by band founder and guitarist Toby Hartmann, are about the new beginning after a bad time. Deaths in the closest family circle, corona blues or war. Sometimes everything is desperate. And yet a new morning always dawns and there is a chance to leave the evil behind with this day.
Of course, dealing with grief or fears about the future is essential. But the focus is on feelings of relief and renewed zest for life. Titles like "And I'm alive", "It would be a miracle" or "I'm so happy" bear witness to this. With their 12 tracks on the CD, "Rocktail" shows confidence, gives hope and encourages.
