In the fall of 2015 jazz quartet Alfredo releases its debut ‘Midnight Prayer’. This album should be considered a tribute to Sam Coenegrachts: swing guitar player, singer, composer, good friend and great love. The band focuses on Sam’s unreleased work, hoping to not let anything of his beautiful music and lyrics go unexplored. His music expresses a simple love for everything honest and pure, and the inability to grasp the harsh reality of life. It is on the interface of this contradiction that the members of Alfredo meet. Alfredo started out as the inquisitive project of singer Astrid Creve. Together with three musicians with a similar passion for lyricism she ventures out into a musical world pivoting around melancholy, narrative and poetry. The warm colours they stir up create an intimate setting where melancholy and childlike dream worlds are intertwined.
