Prog'n Roll! That's the definition that the guys in Jeavestone give for their music. And indeed, it would not make 'em justice to cram this highly imaginative blend of musical styles into a more conventional and restricted category. By combining the unpredictable with the unlikely, Jeavestone have created a richly idiosyncratic alchemy of energy and beauty, which you could already hear on their debut album Mind the Soup released 2005 but this new record is really bound to take every listener pleasantly by surprise. This bunch is not afraid to experiment and juxtapose... it´s a big hug between brazil-jazz, folk and stoner rock along with duty guitar riffs and the occasional ethereal flute solo. Jeavestone was founded in 1999 and has since released one self-financed ep. With loads of gigs behind them, the group has achieved a strong self-confidence equally matched by a subtle sense of irony at their own expense. In 2006 they had a gig in german Burg-Herzberg festival, one of biggest prog-festivals in Europe. In other words: one helluva live act, one helluva band! That's Jeavestone for ya'll!
