Peter Gall, drummer of Web Web, one of the most accomplished and sought-after German jazz drummers, releases his second solo album. An intense work full of passion for modal jazz, fusion and improvisation. Full support from Gilles Peterson. With highly virtuoso, prominent guests: Wanja Slavin, Rainer Böhm, Reinier Baas, Matthias Pichler and a live tour in winter and spring 2025.

Six years have passed since Peter Gall's sensational debut album "Paradox Dreambox" saw the light of day. What began as a experiment became a strong musical statement that met with an enthusiastic response in the jazz world and led to successful tours with a fantastic band. Now finally comes the long-awaited second album: on LOVE AVATAR, the Berliner-by-choice, who was born in Bad Aibling in Southern Bavaria, continues his search for new musical galaxies and paradoxes, emotional eruptions, irresistible grooves and the unreal, the supernatural and the love in music.
LOVE AVATAR by Peter Gall and his colleagues is richer, more complex, but also more focused and consistent than its predecessor. Mystical, hot-blooded and biting, multidimensional and, above all, with a great focus on rousing grooves. It is somehow not a pure jazz album, there are too many parallel worlds for that. Nevertheless, jazz, the unpredictable, blind interaction and the courage to take risks play the most important role in this conglomerate of post bop, fusion, baião, anthemic indie rock, melancholy synth spheres and hypnotizing beats.
