Bror Gunnar Jansson teams up with The Escapism to deliver a powerful blend of funk-infused soul that confronts the harsh realities of power and oppression. Their debut single “Refuge” from the upcoming album “People!” resonates with the urgency of a street preacher’s sermon, combining gritty vocals with tight arrangements reminiscent of Curtis Mayfield and Sly & The Family Stone.
Produced by Jansson and Christopher Cantillo (Dina Ögon), the track offers a soundscape that’s both captivating and unsettling, reflecting the contemporary soul’s potential to challenge and inspire. The full album is set to release on September 12 via the newly established Hxng Jazz Records
