notes

Jason Weber has been playing sax for over twenty years. After earning a Bachelor's degree in music performance from the University of Wisconsin in 1994, Weber led an award-winning contemporary jazz group in southeastern Wisconsin. Weber's first solo CD, '1st AVENUE', achieved national recognition by making it to the final round of Musician Magazine's 1997 Best Unsigned Band Contest (top 25 of a nation-wide 3,000 entries).

Although relatively new to the San Diego and Los Angeles music scenes, Weber has quickly made his presence known as an incredibly gifted performer capable of moving audiences not only with finesse, but also with his unbridled passion and intensity. This versatility allows Weber to perform virtually any style of music in any setting. Consequently, Weber is in great demand as a sideman and for recording sessions when not performing with his own group.

In the past few years, Weber has taken his talents to perform with national recording artists such as: Gerald Albright, Everette Harp, Nathan East, Ray Fuller and Steve Ferrone among others.

  • "Something Blue" and "Can U Feel Me Now"
    author: John W. Schlentz

    I received both the CDs, but haven't had opportunity to hear them. Both arrived in good condition. Thank you for the attention. I've known Jason Weber for a number of years. A good person. John Schlentz

  • Wow ... original sound
    author: Joe Edmonds: saxophonist

    Not often can you say someone hits you with an original sound in today's "cookie cutter" market of smooth jazz. Jason Weber definitely has a sound all his own and that, along with the funkiest grooves anywhere make this CD a lot of fun to listen to.

  • A Delightful Entree' - Smooth and Refreshingly Filling
    author: Bob Norbie

    Smooth saxaphone jazz enhanced with a little of everything. A terrific addition to anyones CD collection.

  • SMOOTH AND FUNKY

    This one is so smooth and funky. It is very easy to listen to no matter what time of the day.

  • One of my BEST CD's, always playing it
    author: Mike

    One of those rare CD's that you want to play all the time, a couple of my favorites are "Struttin" and "J Street", but the entire CD is excellent, a must have for your collection!!

  • author: CD Baby

    Smooth jazz that pushes the boundaries and overflows with attitude, broad style and pizazz. Featuring saxophone, this is smooth jazz rockin' out with Pop sensibilities and mainstream appeal. If you think smooth jazz is "waiting room music" you're going to wish this is what they DID play in there- because with his dashes of funk and "smoove" that waiting room would hold whole new worlds of potential in courting members of the opposite sex. Then he turns around and throws in mbira and lilting time signatures- in other words, you won't know what's around the next corner.

  • AWESOME AWESOME

  • Very provocative and sophisticated!
    author: Eugene McCormick

    This CD has a subtle smooth jazz funk sound to it. Weber gives a very strong and versatile performance. He is truly a star on the rise!

  • mesmerizing, sensual, intoxicating
    author: Erin Wilson

    I was quite impressed with "Something Blue", but not suprised. Jason has impressed me since the first time I saw him play. This is a wonderful CD, it takes me to a new place everytime I listen to it. Thank you Jason for sharing your talent. A treasure.

  • Another Great CD by Jason
    author: Paige

    I'm not sure how he does it, but Jason just keeps getting better. This cd really showcases Jason's "funky" side, which I really enjoy. There aren't many sax artists out there who can JAM like Jason. Keep up the great work! Paige - President, Jason Weber Fan Club - Wisconsin Chapter :-)

  • A nice eclectic smooth jazz discovery
    author: Dave Hicks

    Jason Weber's, "Something Blue," was a very pleasant musical surprise. Within the album he provides an eclectic use of smooth jazz techniques, that work very well to focus the listener on each cut. Hope to be hearing more from Jason soon.....

  • Jason Weber 's short run to mastership
    author: HBH

    Jason Weber has already left the phase of a beginner since a long time. Listen to a masterful sax player and read more about him at www.smooth-jazz.de.

  • I love this album!
    author: Noreen Johnson

    I love this new cd! It expresses the incredible saxaphone technique that only Jason Weber can produce along with re-introducing more of his musical variety by adding new sounds and instruments. From the first song (my favorite) which takes his music to a new level with flutes and trumpets making it a smooth and light jazz piece, to the middle and end which adds funk and ethnic feels to his music...this cd captures it all!
