Two years ago, Jesi B and the All Rites (JBAR for short) properly broke-in our new stage...the first band to be featured with a full drum kit and amplifiers.  In the meantime, these Coeur d'Alene natives performed notable live shows (including The Lincoln Center and The Bing) and have been recording an EP.  The blues is not a common genre among bands of their generation in our region.  However, JBAR is one of the few exceptions, yielding fiery, funky, electric blues at their intense, all-night live performances abound town.  Jesi B lets loose with her deep, soulful vocals while JP cuts searing licks and chops.  Brian adds a great dynamic subtlety on the drums and Tanner holds down the fort with his bass grooves.  To get the word out about their impending EP release and live shows, Jesi B and the All Rites will return to the 103.1 KCDA Local Lounge this Sunday.
 
UPDATE:  Hear it again on the air on Sunday the 15th and Sunday the 22nd!!!
