What is right for rappers was only cheap for the blues and soul singer Daniel Gall: a handy short pseudonym. So he calls himself San2, who was born in Ingolstadt, a holdover from his youth when he sprayed graffiti. So he didn’t study music in Berkeley and Nuremberg, but painting and graphic design. But at the same time he was already on stage as a self-taught blues harp player with US greats, learned the dance steps of James Brown by heart and got a stunning soul voice on it. He then got serious about his music career, first in Amsterdam, and for more than ten years he has been the hottest entertainer in the broad field of roots music here. What he now again in the “Jazz Temple” underpass may prove if he with his first-class quintet (earlier than Soul Patrol firming) “soulful footstompin’ Rhythm & Blues” celebrated.
