Patrick Yandall: "You hear some of the smooth jazz out there, and sometimes you just think, wow, that all just sounds like a machine. To me, there goes the jazz again. And that’s not what jazz is all about. When I interacted with my bass or guitar, or when I did some of the keyboard lines on it, I really wanted it to sound like the band was truly interacting. That’s what I was shooting for on this album." |
Jessy J: I spent my entire life practicing, playing music, learning different instruments, perfecting performing. There's always something to practice when you're a musician. I figured out a few years ago that I really needed to start networking, getting in touch with people, showing them what I could do. For example, Paul Brown. I wouldn't have connected with him if I had been hiding at my house practicing. I kind of changed my perspective around 2005, I started to get out there more and make people more aware of who I was and what I could do. |
