From Wikipedia:
Raised in Portland, Maine, Jason Ricci is the son of the controversial businessman/politician/activist Joe Ricci. Ricci started playing music in punk bands at the age of 14. After discovering a love of the harmonica and Blues music, he turned his attention in that direction. In 1995, Ricci moved from Portland to Memphis, TN, where shortly there after he placed first in the Sonny Boy Blues Society contest at 21 years of age. Later that same year Ricci recorded his first album, Jason Ricci.
In Memphis, Ricci began playing with David Malone Kimbrough, son of blues great Junior Kimbrough, and soon was a part of the bands of both Kimbroughs and was sitting in with R. L. Burnside. This also marked a dark period for Ricci, as drug addiction led to a one-year stint in jail. Ricci claims to have been sober ever since.
In 1999, Ricci won the Mars National Harmonica Contest, and began playing with Keith Brown, later recording with him as well. In 2000, he received a two page write up in Blues Access magazine by Adam Gussow (harmonica player for Satan and Adam) saying:
"I am convinced he along with New Jersey's Dennis Gruenling is one of the best harmonica players of his generation."
After 15 months with Big Al and the Heavyweights, Ricci started his own band, Jason Ricci & New Blood, in 2002. This band features Shawn Starski, who, in June 2008, was named by Guitar Player Magazine as one of the "Top Ten Hottest New Guitarists." In 2005, Ricci was honored with the Muddy Waters Most Promising New Blues Artist award.
In 2007 Ricci and New Blood were signed to Eclecto Groove, a new subdivision of Delta Groove Records. His first album with the label, titled Rocket Number Nine, was released October 23, 2007. Later in 2009 the band recorded "Done With The Devil" for the same Label. The band as a whole has been nominated for Blues Band of the year three times by Blues Wax magazine. Ricci won the Blues Critic Award for Harmonica player of the year (2008) and was nominated for Harmonica Player of the year by the B.M.A. awards as well in 2009 and 2010.
Today, Jason Ricci and New Blood can be found playing almost 300 days per year in cities all over the United States, Canada, and Europe. Ricci has also accompanied guitarist Walter Trout on his recent European tours.
Jason received "Best Harmonica Player" at the May 6, 2010 Blues Music Awards at the Cook Convention Center in Memphis, Tennessee.

THIS is how you play a first position blues! Ricci's years ahead of the rest of us.
Thank you Jason Ricci for existing :)
Mr. Ricci's playing is outstanding, as many people have mentioned. But you have to give props to Shawn Starski too! His playing is totally tasteful and totally original, something you don't find in many guitarists these days. Let alone favoring a clean, clear tone.
Excellent performance from all involved. Classic status in my humble opinion!
TOTALLY!!!
guitar solo is absolutely fantastic, but that harp playing is something else amazing..
I suffer with the Blues. Thanx for this excellent performance! Tom
I have never seen anything like this, truly amazing.
Baddest shit I've ever heard ANY soloist damn near do, let alone it's the harp. Jason is conduit from god.

güzel çok iyi very good
I am not a man to be starstruck but I have been playing all my life and heard the very very best but this kid is the kiddie.
Saw them the night before at Muziekodroom, great as always. Keep going guys!
When I was picking guitar a lot of the blues chitchat was about "making your guitar talk". How about some serious talking harmonica? Congrats Jason, you just nailed my all-time favorite first position blues. Very expressive, subtle, almost like you had an argument with your instrument on a laid back blues background (excellent though). Rock on.
Phenomenal Harmonica! Super Human!
Guitarski was his best guitarist
Little Walter, the one and only!!!!!!!
Just one word - AWESOME :)
Sweet ! Awsome guitar solo !

Excellent video...sound quality and camerawork all very nice.
So, here I am listening this amazing piece by JR and then I look over to the right column and see some videos on How To Play The Harmonica.... hahahaha!!!
G U I T A R S K I I remember that day at the out look in Boulder CO. outside by the van He was staring out into space. Total Robert Johnson moment Not knowing if he was going East or West - profound I’ll never forget it. Nor the music New Blood put down Rock on Rockers
yes
I am going to buy some harmonica! It doesn't let me breathing...when I am watching it, I do realize, what is great on music, especially blues, straight from heard to heard. btw Shawn Starski is unbelievably great performer, he can talk by guitar clearly, no empty sound!
omg i just got to the end of the guitar solo. DAAAAAAAAAAAMN. rdy to hear ricci too.
Phenomenal Guitar!

Wow and the clip ran out and the solo keeps going! Sweet guitar too. These guys knows their stuff.
Shaun & Jason have really laid down some excellent blues,here.Thanks for posting,Vince. I enjoyed it so much ! Great to see the Blues are Alive & Well,in a new generation of young musicians.Shaun is as great as Jason.(I'm well biased towards harmonica,but know lead guitar 'rules'..)Ricci's harp goes as close as possible to 'outdoing' the 'axe'.Highest quality blues-harp. FAVORITE. Regards,Greg. ( P.S. Thanks for info.)
best driftin i've listen
jajaja
aaaaah!..
Love Black cats
awesome harmonica
greet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
J like it!!!!!
God. Damn.
Damn! He is sooo good! Jason is my fuckin hero
holy shit this is hot
Jason Ricci can i ask which harmonica key are you playing before mic after mic?
Eb
harmonica is epic. but if im hearing this 🎸 when i die im already heaven bound
What are your setting on your amp. and what kind of mic do you use ? I like the sound you get please reply thank you .
He is using an Fender Bassman with a lot of pedals from Lone Wolf Blues Company, his mic is an SM57 made by Greg Hemann (blows me away productions) its called Ultimate 57.
Jason and his Guitar player "Guitarski", his whole band, are bad ass period. I'm the supreme ruler on this so it's settled. ;-)
@juzefkaspox the firstt half of JR solo is 1st pos (Bb harp in Bb).. has some OB's in it (they are needsd for the 'blue' notes in middle octave)
the second part is in 2nd pos (Eb harp in Bb) with some Ob's and a couple of Od's too
What an intense solo... Did he even notice that the band had stopped?
toca muito !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This dude sold his soul no one is that good.
that is some tasty, verry, verry bluesy, smokin virtuoso blues harp playing. no insult to steve vai, but his playing doesn't even come to mind hearing this, it's so rootsy.
bravissimo
Really good hard core blues !!! ♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪ ♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪ ♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪
@suzyqblues Jason is alive & very very well. Just heard him tonight with his new band , Approved by Snakes (awesome band with John Lisi on guitar) at Tipitina in New Orleans!
blues hammer
Sorry bu I don't know what to choose between: The harmonica solo or the guitar solo?
GOD
wooow shit.. My jaw dropped at the guitar solo, but after Jason made that harmonica cry like a little girl, I think I would even rather sell my soul to Jason himself, then to the devil, the devil knows shit about harmonica if you compare him to Jason!!
Tom Hartman,! oh yesssss, I'm totally devated to Jason. I love him, he is the best, I do not doubt this....
tasty guitar
Oh yeah, the harp.
no, his is playing a regular B b harmonica for the beginning in first position. Then an E b for second position
@jasonricci👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
on second thought this guys harp is the gates of heavan
TOP harmonica player NO MATER white or ............
Lekker hoor.zo hoort de blues over te komen?
base guy kicks ass!
He needed that second wind to blow out that Blow" ha ah ha" Both sweating like an ice cold beer set out on the table in a 95.F an 16* humidity over cast Chicago afternoon!! Lol.. But Damn' no stopping him once he cleared his pipes!! Excellent! Best ever"
Is that an "Ab harp played in third position' ? Or is that a Bb in cross harp? sometimes it seems that i hear overblows - minor 3rds - but that 10 hole bent is either bent overdraw which only jason is capable of or its "magic dicks bent". I only have an A harp myself, thats why i'm askin.
@juzefkaspox if anyone is interested then it actually is an Ab, it was very stupid to point out minor thirds because its the essence of the blues scale. I just went to the local store and tried it listening to this song?! I am an obsessive freak..
Jason is the best ,He is next to Paul Butterfield . love you Jason Marie
@mreggmanable He changed harmonicas from 1st positions to 2nd position.
Few times you'll hear a crying harmonica.
Very Kim Wilson like 4:59-6:55 which is awesome!!
+Brian Siciliano we both stole it from Sonny Boy. (Right to trust my baby)
+Jason Ricci Awesome. You're ridiculously good dude. And Starski is a bad ass player too. Thanks for the response.
Heroin, pure and simple. Coltrane, Hendrix, Lennon, Billie H., yep..
