Joo Kraus’ new album No Excuse is a musically colorful mix which contains socio-political discourse and most importantly: good vibes! Crossing genre boundaries and dissolving style labels – for Joo Kraus, this is a great passion. With his new album the multi-award-winning trumpeter lives out this passion to its fullest extent. Joo Kraus is Joo Kraus. What sounds so self-evident is by no means the case these days, because in the mercantile everyday life of the music industry, names are often reduced to brands. Not so with Joo Kraus. The fact that the trumpeter from Ulm made music history and earned himself a legendary reputation worldwide with the acid jazz duo Tab Two in the nineties is just as secondary to him as his well-known activity in diverse fields like krautrock, jazz, hip hop, latin, ambient and singer/songwriter. For his new album No Excuse, only one question counts: What do I have to say today? After a journey of almost forty years through almost all the vegetation areas of music, Joo Kraus no longer needs any explanations.
