JABON - From a sea of synthesized tracks and ghetto rhymes, JABON explodes onto the jazz scene with a refreshingly sophisticated sound embellished with just a hint of funk. Drawn together by a passion for a feel good grove and a playfully carefree vibe, JABON fits together like a puzzle. Their intricate riffs and sensual bass lines, explore issues of intimacy in a cool and unique style reminiscent of old R&B love songs. Jesse Richardson, Jr. (bass), Chip DuBose (guitar), Y.L. Douglas (drums), Roger Harris (keyboards) and longtime good friend Marvin Witherspoon (keyboards) are the guys with THE feel good sound. JABON has performed in every major club in Chicago. They have graced the stage with music greats like: The Average White Band, Aretha Franklin, Mavis Staples, Otis Clay, Otis Day and the Knights, Slave, Poi Dog Pondering, Sonia Dada, Roy Ayers, The Barkays, Dajae, Cameo, Confunkshun and Frankie Beverly and Maze.JABON’s new CD, titled “79th Street,” takes listeners on a soulful exploration of love, relationships and things that go “Ooooh!” in the night. The album features En Vogue songbird Terry Ellis, who belts out her “Sunshine.” In true diva fashion.
