With his second album „Mother and Brother“, Bochum-born singer Jeff Cascaro makes his reputation as one of Germany’s major voices in soul music with a pop attitude permanent. His first album „Soul of a Singer“ (2006) created this very special mood blending catchy songs made from pop, soul, jazz and blues elements. The new album immerges into that refreshingly different, individual, and outrageously entertaining cocktail. Jeff Cascaro the voice… and the mood. Mother and Brother is also close to the singer’s soul. It tells us the story of his love for music, for life itself (‚Ella‘ or ‚I Feel Fine‘), it opens chapters of his path of life, his loves and suffering (‚When She Sings To Me‘ or ‚The Sun Is Shining For Our Love‘), or they discreetly ask for a dance (‚Love Is In The Air‘). Cascaro follows the ways classic soul singers like Stevie Wonder, Bill Withers, and Wilson Pickett were travelling before. But Cascaro knows that each traditions need fresh interpretations: „Of course I follow a thread, but in none of the pieces you’ll find a second verse that sounds like the first. There are always slightly different notes, a different melody.“ http://jeffcascaro.de/albums/mother-and-brother/

This album dealt with the fateful ups and downs in life. His 3rd LP "The Other Man" will be released in February 2012.
