Through his 54-year career, 3-time Grammy Award winner John Scofield has occasionally detoured from the traditions of straight-ahead jazz, exploring a blend of funk and jazz that has led to some of his most popular projects. In late autumn of 2026, Scofield looks back at many of his now classic fusion groove compositions with Electrospective. Not intending to replicate the earlier fan favorites, he plans instead to revisit them with the seasoned perspective of several decades; culling tunes from his Blue Matter, Uberjam, and AGoGo bands – each responsible for a few recordings – as well as new material in the same vein. Scofield looks forward to teaming up with a stellar band of colleagues, Electrospective will rely on interpretative input from Scofield alum and super funk drummer/producer Adam Deitch (Lettuce), multidimensional Larry Goldings (Scary Goldings, James Taylor) on keyboards, and legendary bassist Oteil Burbridge (Dead & CO., Tedeschi Trucks, Allman Brothers). With this repertoire so frequently (and loudly) requested by audience members, Scofield is glad to have a band that will truly do the music justice.

John Scofield
His mother was an opera singer, his father a music fanatic. It is therefore hardly surprising that Jude York showed great creative ambition at a young age. The Australian singer–songwriter was born with a lot of talent and in a musical upbringing in which dedication to art always played a major role. What he has made of this is being watched with wide eyes by the international music press. Tens of millions of streams on relevant platforms, sold-out shows in the UK and Down Under, highly acclaimed concerts at SXSW Sydney and the Mighty Hoopla Festival in London, and the prestigious Queensland Music Award for ‘Best New Artist’: York is recognised as one of Australia’s biggest up-and-coming talents thanks to a powerfully versatile voice and that irresistible mix of driving house beats, electro-pop, and brilliant production values. Tracks he arranged himself – such as ‘Those Were The Days’ and ‘Monaco’ (2024) – have brought him to the attention of a global audience, especially in the past year. Now, of course, he is coming to Hamburg on his first extensive festival tour.
