Acclaimed Canadian virtuoso pianist and singer Michael Kaeshammer has earned an international following as a triple threat: a technical master of many different moods, an eloquent singer-songwriter, and a charming and engaging performer. His signature style weaves classical, jazz, blues, boogie-woogie, stride, and pop into a rich and vibrant sonic tapestry. Turn It Up, Kaeshammer’s 15th album, is a dynamic and rollicking collection resistant to a single catch-all genre. A spin through Turn It Up’s eight original songs and one dynamic cover reveals Kaeshammer’s indelible thumbprint: a heady roster of keyboards, Wurlitzer organ, and Rhodes piano, buoyed by trumpet, trombone, saxophone, drums, and bass, all anchored by Kaeshammer’s sparkling voice and palpable positivity.
