Official website for jazz and jazztronica recording artist Chris Standring.
"Groovalicious!" sounds like just the sort of thing Austin Powers might say if he heard the deliciously funky, ultra-hip and vibey, retro-jazz-soul flavors on Chris Standring's long awaited follow-up to Hip Sway, his hit 2000 recording which defined the urban-minded contemporary jazz experience as we crossed millenniums.
Since the release of Velvet, his 1998 debut as a solo artist, The British born guitarist has titled his discs as a way of defining the places his creative muse has taken him. Velvet, whose single "Cool Shades" went Top 10 for over three months on Gavin/Radio & Records' airplay charts, came at a time when Standring was into the ambient European phenomenon known as the "chill out movement." The seductive moniker of Hip Sway, whose title track featuring sax great Richard Elliot peaked at #2 and was one of 2000's most played songs, captured the retro-flavored, dance floor ready, funk-soul-jazz 60's mindset explored by Standring with his bandmates Rodney Lee (keyboards), Dino Soldo (sax), Andre Berry (bass) and Dave Karasony (drums). The title of the 2001 U.K. and Europe only compilation release Shades of Cool is obviously self-perpetuating ...

Bill Peck was born April 1st, 1979 in Orlando, Florida. Bill began his interest in guitar early in life but didn't begin playing until he was fifteen. Jamming the popular songs of the day, Bill found a direction after viewing the "Live and Loud" video performance of Zakk Wylde with Ozzy Osbourne. Obsessed with mastering metal guitar, he meticulously practiced other great player's solos such as Van Halen, Rhoads, Vai, Malmsteen and others. He continued practicing and performing constantly and released his first recorded work at the age of 21. His solo album "Internal Flames", became available on December 9th 2000 and showcases his amazing technique and ability to integrate it into real songs. Not just complete vehicles for chops. Due to the publicity gained from the CD, Bill was contacted about joining the former Wright Entertainment Group rock band "Gotti 13". Bill worked as a hired gun lead guitar player from May 2001 through the end of 2001 ...

Singer/songwriter Wes King was born in Winder, Georgia on January 20, 1966. After picking up the guitar at the age of 14, he wrote his first songs two years later; after studying the Bible at Covenant College, he relocated to Franklin, Tennessee. Wes signed with Reunion Records and recorded his first solo LP The Ultimate Underlying No Denying Motivation in 1990. After issuing Sticks and Stones a year later, King resurfaced in 1993 with The Robe. 1995's Common Creed was his biggest hit to date, notching three CHR chart-toppers -- "Life Is Precious," "The Love of Christ" and the title cut. In 1997, King issued A Room Full of Stories, his most acclaimed effort yet followed by What Matters Most in 2000.

John Frusciante Website:
The Red Hot Chili Peppers was the first & only recording studio band John ever joined. John has played live shows with band members of Fishbone, Thelonious Monster etc. Flea (RHCP), Steven Perkins (Jane's Addiction/Porno for Pyros) and John formed a side project called the Three Amoebas. Even after consulting several different record labels, they have yet to release an official recording.
When John first joined the Chili Peppers, he was a chain smoking 18 year old.
Bob Forrest's band, Thelonious Monster, was looking for a guitarist at the same time the Peppers introduced John to them. John was the Thelonious Monsters first choice, but John didn't like the idea. Bob Forrest recruited him 5 minutes too late, as Anthony signed Frusciante to become a Pepper.
"They were my favorite band in the world. I knew every lyric, every guitar part, every solo, and bass part, and had always felt their music to be a source of peace and beauty in my life. I always felt very spiritually and philosophically connected with the band's ideals and way of life. The moment I joined the band was probably the most intense rush of pure happiness I will ever experience in my life."
During the Christmas season of 88', the Peppers debuted Frusciante as their new guitarist one the lamely named MTV festival "2hip4U" replacing the brief Duane "Blackbird" McKnight.
"John was an absolute Hillel clone", recalls Alain Johannes, a long time friend of the Chili's. "Not only did he play like him, but he stood and moved like him as well."
On May 7,1992, right in the middle of the "bloodsugarsexmagik" tour in Japan, John announced to his bandmates that he was going to leave the band. "I can no longer stay in the band any longer.I've reached a state where I cannot do justice to what we've created. I can't give what it takes to be in this band anymore."
When Gotez (a reporter) asked Frusciante what he should tell the public about his departure, he said, "Just tell them I went crazy."
The VERY expensive ($60+) book entitled "Musicians as Artists" features three of John's paintings, one in which was done by him and Flea's daughter, Clara.
Rejoined the Band (after Dave Navarro left) in May of 1998.
Played his first show with the Peppers since his 1992 departure, in Washington D.C. at the 9:30 Club which was a warm up for their Tibetan Freedom Concert gig the next ...
