Jason Ricci & The Bad Kind: Jazz Musician in New York

About Jason Ricci & The Bad Kind

Jason Ricci & The Bad Kind centers on American harmonica player and singer Jason Ricci, whose work moves between modern blues, blues rock, and jazz-inflected phrasing. He has appeared as a guest with artists including Johnny Winter, Terence Blanchard, and Ana Popović, and was named Best Harmonica Player at the 2010 Blues Music Awards. In New York City, the group has been heard at Terra Blues, where Ricci leads from the front line with tight ensemble cues. His performances favor speed and articulation over vocal grandstanding.
