Dewa 19 Involves Steve Lukather And Dave Koz In Single Nothing Is Comparable To You

JAKARTA - Dewa 19 greets Indonesian music lovers by launching a new single entitled Nothing comparable to you as the closing of 2024.

Like several other singles recently, Dewa 19 has again involved international musicians. This time, Ahmad Dhani cs invited Steve Lukather (guitarist TOTO) and Dave Koz (saksofon) as collaborators.

Lukather was involved because of Dewa's admiration for TOTO since the beginning of their career. Dhani cs even released a cover of Rosanna's song which is a TOTO song.

Meanwhile, Dave Koz's involvement was due to his abilities and big name. He is one of the best pop-jazz saxophone players of his generation.

Moreover, there is nothing that is proportional to the aspirations of the work on David Sanborn's first album, the saksofonist who became the pioneer of smooth jazz.

Nothing comparable to you' is also important for Dewa 19's musical journey, because for the first time Ahmad Dhani took over the main vocals in the ballad song.

Apart from involving Steve Lukather and Dave Koz, nothing comparable to you also includes Marcello Tahitoe to fill out backing vocals.

Although Dewa 19, which has undergone several formation changes for more than three decades, Ahmad Dhani as the founder remains the band's creative motor. In 2024, Dewa 19 consisting of Ahmad Dhani (keyboards, vocals), Andra Ramadhan (guitar), Yuke Sampurna (bass), Agung Yudha (drums), and invited Marcello Tahitoe alias Ello (vocals).

This formation is deemed possible for Dewa 19 to remain relevant, while retaining the musical heritage they have built over the years.
