"Dirty ensemble chops, rich vocal dexterity, and solid lyrical flows make Jelly Bread a legitimate festival act with huge potential..."
"Music meant for a night of soul healing on the dance floor with a little granola for breakfast..."
Jelly Bread is the combination of a pumping rhythm section that grew up together playing in a gospel band, an award-winning singer/songwriter who approaches music from a Ben Harper/John Butler point of view, rootsy funk/rock guitar licks with a bit of dirt under the nails. Steeped in roots, wallowing in funk, and marinated in soul, Jelly Bread's sound is all wrapped up in the groove. Thumping bass lines, catchy guitar riffs, and phenomenal drum beats blend with stay in your head vocal harmonies to classify them as a perfect festival band. Known as a high energy live act that loves to jam, they also write with surprising pop sensibilities... and like jelly, they'll stick to you.
This Sand Harbor performance is part of the 2011 Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival.
