The wait is finally over: Zed Mitchell returns to his fans and all music lovers with plenty of verve and cheerfulness. Because with "Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.....", the guitar master is releasing his highly anticipated eighth studio album! And the joy of one of the best guitarists in Europe is not only evident in the album title, but on each of the 12 tracks.
The musical jack-of-all-trades spent more than a year working on the new album in his Blue Eyes Studio in Düsseldorf. And the result is something to be proud of. The album gets off to a brisk start with the eponymous song "Ha Ha Ha". It sounds as if Zed Mitchell is reminiscing about great concerts and packed clubs. But attentive music lovers will notice: A fresh sound quickly blends into this melancholy, quite as if Zed Mitchell wants to ask his fans to finally create moments of happiness together again and especially: to laugh together!
And the string magician has succeeded in one more thing since the beginning of his international career: touching people with his blues albums and his sounds. Mitchell inspires with music that doesn't fit into any box. Sometimes soft, then rocking, then personal, then groovy, his sound always remains one thing: honest, handmade music in which attention has been paid to every note, every nuance and which touches hearts just as much as it makes legs and bodies vibrate.
Zed Mitchell wrote every song for this album himself. But the string master also took on the production and mastering of the studio album. Zed Mitchell received the best musical support from his son Todor Manojlovic, who showcases his skills on guitar and keyboards. David Haynes and Konrad Matheus, two talented drummers, provide the beat on "Ha Ha Ha", while Lukas Kaminski is responsible for the bass. Pete Feenstra also receives special attention and thanks from Zed Mitchell for his lyrics on the track "A Lover Or A Friend" and Gregory McCoy for his keyboard contribution on "Don't Believe".
