Jesus Volt "In stereo

rs on Jesus Volt:  Jesus Volt has existed for seven years, performing over 500 concerts (France, Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Spain and a one-month tour in Australia), has sold several thousand CD’s, but more than any number can represent, they are four strong personalities:  Lord Tracy (singer and harmonica), Mr. Tao (guitar), Lenine McDonald (bass), and Magic Doudous (drums).

A few words on Jesus Volt :  Jesus Volt is a united, homogenius and mature group of musicians who figured out just how to focus their wild energy into a

solid group without losing their way individually down the creative, mysterious path of music.  Together, they’ve managed to use their perfomances as a way to nourish their music.

A few notes on Jesus Volt: Their music is a contemporary crossbreed of electronic sound, with a foundation richly based on Blues of the 40’s and 50’s, Funk of the 70’s, passing through the era of Rock and Roll, while keeping their ears open wide to the new sounds of the 21st century.

 

Their third album, “In Stereo” was recorded in July 2005 in Chalet (Bordeaux, France), under the brilliant artistic direction of Tony Cohen, Australian producer of Nick Cave, Sacred Cowboys, as well as Michael Hutchence.  He fell for Jesus Volt in 2004, during their  tour in his native Australia. 

 

A few guest performers came along for the ride on this album, lending their talent to the four members of Jesus Volt:  Arnaud Mellier, alias “DJ Cook”, from the group Ripley,on scratch &beats; Boney Fields on trumpet and backup vocals; Nicolas Liesnard on keyboard and Frédéric Girard on percussion.

 

With intelligence, sensitivity, open-mindedness and talent, Jesus Volt confirms that Rock and Roll is not only here to stay, but is ready to cross into the frontier of tomorrow.

Guys, guys, guys... 

Thanks for another great gig in our "backyard" today in Rijen. From the total of 4 Jesus Volt gigs we've seen so far this one, was one of the best.

Great ambiance, nice crowd and a band performing at its peak. Can't wait for the new live album/DVD to be recorded and you can bet we will be there to support you.

Thanks a million for a great performance of Kreeping Kingsnake, the Cornbread and all the rest. We cannot let out the new ones as "the Jungle Blues" and we loved the way you handled "Baby please don't go/Land of a 1000 dances". Just perfect how mr. Tao played the guitar in this one (too bad, the acoustic guitar was broken this afternoon). Nice bassline as well, by the way ;-) A far more than two hours lasting gig, it looked like you guys, just wouldn't stop and it was fine by us!!!

You guys just get better, every time we catch up overhere in Holland. Keep up the good work and we will see you when you get back!!!

 Grtnx,

 Frank & Marjon
