JASON BLAKE & BRANDON WHITE
Jason Blake & Brandon White bring richly layered instrumental progressive music to the stage through the unique pairing of twelve-string Warr guitar and drums. Together, they expand Blake’s orchestral approach into a dynamic live performance that captures the power of a full band while retaining the intimacy of two musicians on stage. Blake, whose innovative approach to the Warr guitar has earned praise as “one of the most distinguished technicians on the Warr” (Betreutes Proggen), uses the instrument to create the depth, interplay, and sonic scope of a full ensemble, while White’s dynamic drumming brings those compositions to life with power, nuance, and spontaneity. Drawing from Blake’s acclaimed solo catalog and the music of Aziola Cry, the duo blends progressive rock, jazz fusion, and cinematic storytelling into performances that are both technically adventurous and emotionally resonant.
