Jef Neve belongs to the top circle of Belgian musicians. So far, he has showcased his skills on various instrumental albums, from soundtracks to symphonies, and several solo piano albums. With "That Old Feeling," Jef ventures into the vocal jazz genre. Surrounded by a host of guest vocalists, he releases his first album where music and lyrics complement each other.
From jazz standards to lesser-known pop gems, all of them received a new arrangement. For this album, Jef collaborated with singers from various backgrounds, coming from different continents, ranging from internationally renowned jazz singers like Madeleine Peyroux, Trijntje Oosterhuis, and Monique Harcum to hit phenomena like Sam Sparro, Dutch rappers like Typhoon, and emerging talents like Sam Merick and Johnny Manuel.
Jef has succeeded in weaving this album into a cohesive whole and will surprise friends and foes alike with innovative arrangements and broadly accessible songs. This album transcends the jazz genre and will touch a wide audience.
Starting in May, Jef Neve will embark on a tour with this album and some guest singers, after which the company will travel abroad.
