“Brașov Tales” (2025)
“One live recording session, one day, one tight-knit band. Lars’s sense of timing, texture, and emotional resonance is exceptional. His playing is expressive, sincere, never showy, but always in service of the greater whole…..His style never feels forced in its eclecticism. He blends his influences in a way that feels natural, and his outstanding band—perfectly attuned to when to let go, tighten up, or give space—fully supports that. They play with refinement and grace as if it’s the most natural thing in the world. Effortlessly.” - Ella Milou, Blues Town Music.
“With Brașov Tales (2025), Lars Kutschke, a premier European blues guitarist and composer, offers an eclectic, genre-blurring exploration of American music rooted in jazz, blues, funk, and rock, but with a polished, modern sensibility. Across the album, Kutschke weaves jazz-inspired improvisation and ambient textures with danceable, high groove energy, with parallels to funk and soul acts like Stevie Wonder and the Meters. Guitar work shifts from fluidly tender, melodic introspection to fiery blues-rock displays of virtuosity. Kutschke and his studio band shine as vital, energetic performers, captured live in a single day’s session. Brașov Tales offers an eclectic approach to blues, jazz, rock, and funk both polished and energetic.” - Jack Austin, Blues Blast Magazine
“While We’re Here” (2022)
“While We’re Here finds the slick and talented Kutschke using his blues, soul, jazz, funk, and rock influences to create a deliciously mixed bag of upscale roots music with the help of special guests including vocal powerhouse Tad Robinson, guitarist Kirk Fletcher, and organists Simon Oslender and Alberto Marsico. He’s well-versed in all types of American music but comes to it with a Continental flair that’s hypnotic and intriguing. Kutschke’s title cut “While We’re Here” feels peaceful and spiritual and contains some of his most beautiful guitar lines on the record. He never rushes things, always says exactly what’s needed, and paints the space between your headphones with color and precision. It’s a gorgeous moment that deserves your listening time. Other highlights on the record are “Hidalgo” and Neil Young’s “Coupe De Ville.” Through it all, Lars Kutschke plays it cool, in the pocket, and out of sight. Highly recommended.” - Mike O’Cull, Rock & Blues Muse
