JASON RICCI & NEW BLOOD Source: Erie Times Date: 06/2008 Writer: ANDY VINEBERG

Once summer hits, Erie weekends never lack for great music, both indoors and outside. But one show you shouldn't miss is Jason Ricci and New Blood, who returns to Docksider on Saturday after scorching the place in January.

Ricci's an electrifying harmonica player and performer who plays rough-hewn, physical blues rock with immense soul and passion. He's the kind of guy you see once, then drag your friends to see next time. The band smokes, too. Cover is just $5 -- a bargain for a major talent like this.
