International Quartet
featuring Jay Anderson (b) and Adam Nussbaum (dr)
The international Ulli Jünemann Quartet was founded 2002 after playing many gigs with the great Keith Copeland. I was up for a change for the drums. Adam Nussbaum is (at least in my opinion) one of the top 10 jazz drummers in the world with an amazing feel and countless musical possibilities to make everybody in the band sound great. In 2011 Adam brought his „buddy“, soulmate Jay Anderson into the band and later Jeanfrançois Prins on guitar who became one of my best friends (thanks for making me godfather!!). Of course this quartet is not easy to get together, but we are open for any playing suggestions/gigs. You won’t regret this! Just drop us a line if you are interested!
"Jazz is neither specific repertoire, nor academic exercise... but a way of life."
Lester Bowie
My friendship with Adam Nussbaum goes way back to 2002. While playing with the great Keith Copeland I ran into Adam on a gig in Germany. I gave him one of my CDs, he listened and wanted to join the band. Adam is one of my absolute favorite Drummers in the world. He makes everybody in the band sound great. We played every year between 2002 and 2017. This led to lots of gigs and more musical friendship towards e.g. Jay Anderson and Jeanfrançois Prins. I am very greatful!
