Band on fire: The Red Hots Nominated for 4 BMA’s in 2022!
JP Soars prides himself with having one of the tightest bands on the scene, with Red Hots bassist Cleveland Frederick and longtime drummer Chris Peet. The trio was nominated for 4 Blues Music Awards in 2022 including BB King Entertainer of the year, Band Of The Year, Instrumentalist Of The Year (Guitar & Drums). Add to the trio, violinist extraordinaire Anne Harris and what you get is, “A magical, almost religious musical experience,” Soars says.
"I first met Anne Harris on the Legendary Rhythm and Blues Cruise while she was touring with the great Otis Taylor. The first time I heard her play it was simply mesmerizing on so many levels. The passion she brings to the stage, the excitement in her playing and the sheer power she exudes forces one to stop in their tracks and pay attention. Since then every time Harris and I wind up on a festival together I always invite her up to play and it it’s always an amazing, inspiring experience." The three artists are musician’s musicians, each bringing a unique style and fresh translation of the great Southern soul, blues, and rock music that came before them. Together, their mutual chemistry, high energy and skill sets create a cohesive vision, with echoes of Muscle Shoals and Macon, that organically flows together into an entirely original and dynamic form of Americana, Southern soul roots music with a modern sensibility…
