Bio
Take West Coast cool, mix in deep roots, rock star musicianship and contagious grooves, and you get the Restless Blues Band. Their unique urban sound blends jazz, country and soul influences into a big, bluesy ball of energy and power.
Live shows feature a range of hooky originals to hard-driving, crowd-pleasing tunes that are both heart moving and great fun.
Lead singer Aynee Osborn and drummer Denise Fraser founded the band and have been collaborating for 20 years - and their chemistry, artistry and connection shine.
Aynee Osborns richly textured vocals are akin to Bonnie Raitt and a dash of kd lang with gutsy depth that is uniquely her own. She launched her career in Parisian cabarets, and still evokes that up-close enchantment today. Aynees recording experience was highlighted by many years of working with close friend and producer, Paul Rothchild (Janis Joplin, Bonnie Raitt and The Doors). Aynee also was championed by The Eagles Glenn Frey to sing in his jazz club in Aspen, Co. Shes come close to the big dream coming true but chose to stay true to her music rather than do what the business wanted her to do.
Denise Fraser is a drumming prodigy whose experience ranges from Broadway to the bayou. Denise has been featured several times in Modern Drummer Magazine Up & Coming and Female Drummers Round Table. She has toured the world and played numerous U.S. cities with performer Sandra Bernhard. Praised for keen intuition and peerless improvisation, shes a spectacle of musicianship to behold.
East Coast native and lead guitarist Drew DeAscentis cut his teeth playing the Blues. A Berklee Music College grad and acclaimed film and TV session player, he radiates joy and inspired genius on stage.
LA native bassist Ron Battle rounds out the quartet as the smooth, unifying groove of the band. His pedigree jam mates include Solomon Burke, Linda Hopkins Lucky Peterson and Buddy Miles.
Together, the Restless Blues Bands love for the music and mutual respect are infectious. Their powerful, big energy sound moves audiences hearts and bodies.
Even if youre new to the Blues, this band will get to you. As singer Osborn recently emphasized with her magnetic smile, That is the goal, feeling good, its pretty simple.
