Please do keep us posted. Especially considering I now contribute to the
programming of one of the major French harp festivals, and having something
to listen to goes a long way towards convincing people it's worth investing
in.

I wonder why no one has connected Jason with the jamband scene actually. I
would imagine that he'd easily fit in and it would be a great way to get
better recognition not from the blues or harp scene (these mean nothing in
terms of recognition) but from a wider jam rock scene. You know, doing
Warren Haynes Benefit Concert in the winter and Bonnaroo in the summer would
definitely put him on the map...
