Blue\, before founding the independent record label Roni Music in 2003 which has since released some of his eight of his albums as a leader including The Dream I Had (2003)\, Flubby Dubby (2008) and Akustik InventYours (2014). His latest project\, Jazz Standards and Other Songs (2019) is an alluring mix of familiar jazz numbers and innovative adaptations of songs from other genres like his trendsetting arrangement for jazz trio Drake’s “Passion Fruit.” \nRon was grateful to be selected as the winner of the 1996 Heritage International Jazz Guitar Competition. He has also been a recipient of the 2012 Donald Knutson Memorial Development Fund and the 1991 and 2000 Meet the Composer Performance Fund.

The Joe Henderson quartet toured frequently in European countries Norway\, Denmark\, Sweden\, Austria\, Belgium\, England\, Switzerland\, France\, Italy and Germany and venues across the U.S. In a trio setting she performed with Joe Henderson and Charlie Haden in 1989 and with George Mraz in 1994.

Born in Omaha\, Nebraska\, his parents having moved there from Nigeria\, West Africa\, the family later moved to Wisconsin where Essiet began his musical studies at age 10 on the violin. Four years\, later he switched to the bass. As a child\, and into his teens\, his family moved often. His father worked for the US\, as well as the Nigerian government\, and his job took the family to many places including Europe\, Africa and various cities in the US. His family finally settled in Portland\, Oregon where he began studying jazz at the age of 14. Having traveled widely as a youngster with his family\, he had an easy time adjusting to life on the road once he turned professional. More importantly\, his early exposure to many cultures\, languages\, folkways and religions\, fostered his world view of strength through diversity. “Some musicians are purist” says Essiet\, “but I like to mix styles. I like many different types of cultures”. To learn more about Essiet visit his website here.

SUMMARY:Jessica Fichot Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Siskiyou Music Project welcomes back Jessica Fichot and her quartet for a performance on Wednesday\, August 30 at 7:00 p.m. at Grizzly Peak Winery in Ashland. \nAccompanied by her accordion\, toy piano\, and fiery band\, Los Angeles-based chanteuse and songwriter Jessica Fichot draws from her multi-ethnic French / Chinese / American heritage to create an intoxicating multilingual fusion of French chanson\, Shanghai jazz\, gypsy swing and international folk. With 3 acclaimed albums under her belt\, Jessica has brought her music to audiences around the world – regularly performing in China\, Mexico\, Canada and across the U.S and western Europe — backed by her talented musicians (on clarinet/sax\, upright bass\, drums and guitar) and singing in French\, Mandarin Chinese\, Spanish and English. Jessica’s music has been hailed as “enchantingly original” by the LA Weekly\, and “a glittering testament to L.A.’s multiculturism” by the L.A. Times. \nBorn in Upstate New York to a Chinese mother and French father\, Jessica spends her youth in and around Paris. Moving to Boston after graduating from an international high school in France\, Lycée International\, she earned her Bachelor’s degree from Berklee College of Music. While still in college\, she polished her songwriting skills by composing countless children’s songs for a local children’s theater\, and later\, for publishing companies specializing in educational material. Over a hundred of her children’s songs are featured as part of ESL programs published in over a dozen countries. \nRelocating to Los Angeles\, she embraces her international influences and independently releases her critically acclaimed 2007 debut album\, “Le Chemin”\, garnering the stamp of approval from tastemakers such as LA Weekly\, San Francisco Chronicle\, and KCRW — and licensing a few songs in major movies and TV shows on the way. She also gets a chance to tour the world — traveling regularly throughout the U.S\, and occasionally to Mexico\, Canada\, China and Western Europe — performing on vocals\, accordion and toy piano and accompanied by a fiery band of clarinet\, double bass and guitar.
