Description

« The Incredible JSB ! » is a trio. Each musician represents a continent, and a different culture. “J” (Jean-Sebastien Hery, Zhang Si’an, France), guitarist, singer, composer; “S” (Sunny Dee, Ghana), percussionist; “B” (Benny Oyama, New York), guitarist and instrumentalist.

After several travels to China (Beijing, Shanghai, Lanzhou, Xinjiang, Taiwan…) and many different musical experiments, Jean-Sébastien Héry (Zhang Si’an) decides to go further in his experiments by writing songs in Chinese mandarin.

From this experience, Jean-Sébastien Héry (Zhang Si’an) will keep an interest in music without boundaries. In September 2007, Jean-Sébastien Héry (Zhang Si’an) meets with butter fingers New-York Jazz guitarist Benny Oyama, who will introduce to him genius percussionist Sunny Dee from Ghana.

The Band is sometimes joined by other musicians such as Bass player Daniel Brushmann (New York), Saxophonist Scott Gumbiner (California) and West China percussionist Ubuul Turstun (Xinjiang).

In November 2007, « The Incredible JSB ! » recorded there first demo in Beijing during a concert at Salud! . It’s a 9 track demo, 34 minutes.
