"Funk with cult appeal: 'Funk is my Religion' is the 11th album by the Nils Landgren Funk Unit, and the name says it all. For years, Landgren's jazzy funk music has been his driving force, and his addiction to this life elixir is evident with every note: the tracks cook and groove, making it a true delight. With tight funk rhythms, brilliant horn sections, cool vocals, and strong melodies, the Nils Landgren Funk Unit has now added another chapter to fiery party music."

Nils Landgren

For the words versatility and curiosity, there is a synonym: Nils Landgren. Virtuosically, "Mr. Red Horn" navigates from perspective to perspective, partly because he thrives on constant change. Two souls reside in his chest: When the audience experiences him with his "Funk Unit," the Swede reveals his distinctive, relentlessly groovy side and becomes the jazz action hero. But there's also a very gentle, melancholic, highly sentimental Nils Landgren. This side of him emerges, for example, during the Advent season when the instrumentalist and singer celebrates "Christmas With My Friends," or in his ballad projects. On the trombone, he intones with unparalleled smoothness, and his uniquely textured, fragile voice touches the heart and soul with its sensitivity.
