The New Jason Ricci and New Blood Cd is OUT from Eclecto Groove!
Produced by Grammy Award winning producer John Porter, Jason Ricci & New Blood have created a visionary and sonically explosive masterpiece that is sure to shake your foundations.
"As a lover of live music, a JRNB show is absolutely exhilarating. Imagine the best virtuoso-filled "jam band" you've ever seen (think early '90's Phish, old Fleck tones, Allmans, Robert Randolph, Derek Trucks, etc.) and then double the energy and stage presence." - Blake Taylor (Writer for Cincinnati City Beat)
"Ricci links the jazz mastery of Howard Levy, with the blues precision of Jerry Portnoy and hits speeds that make John Popper look like he's standing still." - Brad Kava (Mercury News) Click here to purchase
