The feeling is that of a small electric jazz and soul ensemble, with added textures of synthesizers, strings and percussion: a modern jazz fusion environment. The compositions have that "singable" quality of seemingly simple melodies, but always with a twist or a deep dimension, and always with a guitar that is played with heart and soul... not just fingers. From the song "Gilmour Estrada", which is a tribute to David Gilmour and the instrumental Pink Floyd, to the epic movie soundtrack feeling of the song "Fish River Canyon", and the joyful thielemans-jazz-waltz "April & May Revisited"; the album "Sonic Embrace" will transport you on a flowing, calm and magical journey that you will not forget.

AndrewPlusJohn is here with their second instrumental album, titled Sonic Embrace. With this new release, the duo has established their voice and they present it with great self-confidence.
