Cory Wong Releases New Album with Metropole Orkest

Guitarist and producer Cory Wong has released his latest album in collaboration with the Metropole Orkest, conducted by Jules Buckley. This unique project combines Wong’s signature funk sound with the rich orchestral tones of the Metropole Orkest.

Cory Wong, known for his work with Vulfpeck and his solo projects, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration: “Collaboration in its purest form means that both artists are involved and bring out something in each other that they could never achieve on their own. That’s why I love to collaborate. It keeps my creative mind running and inspired. A few years ago, I did a short series of concerts with the Metropole Orkest, and since then, we’ve been discussing working on a project together. I have never seen an orchestra so versatile in playing both classical and groove-based music. I knew we could capture something very special if I combined them with my band.”

“Starship Syncopation” is available on all major streaming platforms, and a physical copy of the album will be released in October.
