Pressing Musical Boundaries

Storming out of Blacksburg, Virginia is the Richard Jessee Project, a trio featuring guitarist Richard Jessee, bassist Cameron McLaughlin and drummer Janiah Allen. They submitted their nine-song instrumental CD-R release entitled Attack Of The Killer Ringworm. If you don't know from ringworms, don't worry, as long as you are familiar with high-tech, virtuoso guitar playing, you are all set to enjoy the Project's music. Odd time signatures and intense technical precision highlight the band's tracks as they press musical boundaries in order to create an outrageous listening experience. They blend genres like Starbucks blends coffee beans - melding classical, hard rock, progressive and jazz grooves into a cohesive sound shock. Jessee is an awesome player, and from the buzz surrounding the band, the live show is not to be missed. Highly recommended. The Richard Jessee Project were originally profiled in the December-January, 2006 edition of The Undiscovered.
