About the Band

"SISTA JEAN AND CB"

"SISTA JEAN & CB" HOLD NOTHING BACK WHEN IT COMES TO WHAT

THEY PLAY AND SING ABOUT.THE SONGS ON "REQUIEM FOR A HEAVYWEIGHT(TRIBUTE TO ODETTA)"

 THE SONGS COME ALIVE IN MANY HUES AND RHYTHMS.

SISTA JEAN AKA JEAN McCLAIN, HAS BEEN ON SOME OF THE

WORLD'S BEST MUSIC AS A SESSION SINGER FROM CHER, MICK

JAGGER, TO TINA TURNER,ETC. COMING OFF A 3 YEAR TOUR WITH 

HUGH LAURIE'S 2 ALBUM BLUES TOUR WAS A GREAT WAY FOR ME TO RE-

INTRODUCE MY ROOTS BASED CAREER.

C.B.AKA CARLYLE BARRITEAU, COMES FROM THE WORLD OF GUITAR

PLAYING FOR SUCH ARTISTS AS PATTI AUSTIN,BOBBY CALDWELL,

TO THELMA HOUSTON.

THEIR MUSIC EMBODY'S THE SPIRIT OF DAYS GONE BY WHEN ALL

YOU NEEDED WAS A VOICE AND A GUITAR TO SAY WHAT WAS IN

YOUR HEART AND SOUL.HEARING THEM IN A BAND SETTING, JUST MAKES 

THEIR MUSIC COME ALIVE.
