the latest and the greatest from el jezel

jasper revisits el jezel

Our old friend Jasper was pretty much the first person to ever write something about El Jezel back in the early days, but it’s been a bit since he’s seen us.  Fortunately, we were able to play Rehab which he is booking and he had a chance to catch up on us.  Suffice to say, we still got the goods:

“I’ve known George, Jess, and Dan, namely El Jezel for years and must have seen them dozens of times over the course of that time, but hadn’t recently - since ‘05 I think.  Holy fucking shit, in that amount of time, about as long as it takes most semi-famous bands to make it then break up, they’ve not only stuck together but have grown exponentially as a band.  They’ve found their voice, got their groove back, etc.  More specifically they’ve slowed down the pace of their songs to a comfortable Dandy Warhols level, with epic results.  How cool is it that a band from our old days kept at it and reinvented themselves so spectacularly.”
