BWW Review: HUMANOLOGY, PETER JÖBACK NEW ALBUM by Annette Stolt
- October 26, 2018 During his entire career, Peter Joback has gone from musical to pop back and forth. In recent years, he has been dedicated to the musicals as he played the Phantom of the Opera Phantom, both in West End, Broadway and Stockholm. However, together with Kathryn Williams, Tobias Froberg and Tobias Karlsson, he has written songs for a new pop album. The first time he released a taste of it was in London almost 4 years ago when he sang 'Beliver' in a stripped version. Now he has recorded 10 songs, all with amazing arrangements with a band, strings and brass with exception of the song, Call Me By Your Name, performed only by a piano. Resound is a perfect choir which, along with the skilled musicians and Peter's voice, completes every song.
