Harmonica virtuoso Lee Oskar debuts somber album 'Never Forget'
EVERETT — This is no “Spill the Wine” party song.
“Never Forget,” the latest album by harmonica virtuoso Lee Oskar, formerly of the funk-rock fusion band War, is the Danish musician’s memoir as a child of a Holocaust survivor.
“Music is not just about a hit record and some cute little riff or hook line,” Oskar, 73, said at his home in the Everett suburbs. “Music is much deeper than that. I was looking to dig deep … to liberate myself from what I was fearing.”
A release party for “Never Forget” is set for Friday at The Triple Door in Seattle, with another show planned April 1 at North City Bistro in Shoreline.
