Official Biography (courtesy of the Jade Element)
The Jade Element began as a studio collaboration between producer/composer Anthony Molinaro (Super Magnetic, Tori Roze and the Hot Mess), vocalist Rebecca Jade (Anthology House Band, Siren’s Crush, Super Magnetic), and lyricist/poet Alfred Howard (The Heavy Guilt, K23 Orchestra). The three met regularly in Anthony’s Ocean Beach studio for nearly a year, carefully crafting a blend of RnB, Trip Hop, Neo Soul, and Latin Dub styles into a unique sonic cocktail. These sessions led to the creation of The Jade Element and their debut self-titled LP (to be released July 8, 2011).
The live show for The Jade Element is a deeper exploration of the textures laid out in the LP. The players in the Live Show are all top notch jazz, funk, and soul session mainstays whose own musical vocabulary enhances the already lush sound. With the addition of outstanding vocalists Ken Turner and Angie Sagastume, The Jade Element will provide a high energy show that oozes with sex appeal and sonic bravery.
