Jasper’s Riddle’s journey to music is something even Hollywood would baulk at. After beginning his medical studies to become a brain surgeon, he switched to his current vocation, that of an aspiring heart surgeon… all the while continuing to record as both a Jeff Buckley<\/strong>-influenced acoustic singer songwriter… and a classical composer… and an artist… and a novelist. Jasper’s Riddle’s debut release reflects his chameleon-like ability to soak up what is happening around him and to interpret it in his own unique way, with elements of rock, neo-soul and even flamenco heralding the arrival of a true 21st<\/sup> Century polymath.<\/p>\n

Jasper’s Riddle is L. S. Zeickner<\/strong>, a Manchester-based painter and pianist from a Nigerian British background, comfortable singing in English, Edo and Spanish. The concept of Jasper’s Riddle is an “acoustic storybook” – each track a self-contained story with a series of paintings and poems taking you on a journey through different styles and narratives, each combining to become a single story. The breadth of Lukas’s endeavours are such that he has taken to YouTube and Facebook to show the connecting paths between his acoustic and classical work in a series of videos titled “The Four Wise Monkeys”:<\/p>\n

Influenced by beacons of talent from across the world, from Aretha Franklin<\/strong> and Fela Kuti<\/strong> to Linkin Park<\/strong>, each offering subtle imprints into his own sound. With an overarching love of Schubert<\/strong>, his fascination for science as well as the Arts has led to Lukas performing and producing all his own music, not to mention creating the accompanying paintings and a side-line in publishing novellas. The next time you say to yourself that you haven’t got time to do something, remember to give Jasper’s Riddle a listen and remind yourself that anything is possible!<\/p>\n
