Raklo Weinrich has his highly musical roots in a Sinti family. As a child he began to play violin and guitar and on the age of 9 he already was the rhythm guitar player in the band of his brother Zipflo. In that band also Karl Ratzer was a member and soon Raklo took over the position as solo guitarist! He was always looking for new ways: inspired by guitar players like Joe Pass and Wes Montgomery he opened up more in the direction of American Jazz and he left the tradition of Django Reinhardt. Concerts and tours followed, with musicians like Philippe Catherine, Stochelo Rosenberg, Harry Stojka, Jermaine Landsberger and many others of the European as well of the American music scene.
Right now Raklo Weinrich started a new capital in his musical carrier, founding a quintet and recording under his own name.
With great fellow musicians he combines hi-energy Jazz with funky and Latin grooves. His strong and at the same time warm tone on the guitar will soon be well known as his trademark! Especially his original compositions and the hi-class soloistic work of his musicians defines the specific sound of the band.
