The “Jet Velocity Holiday All Star Band” is a super high energy celebrity band returning this year for the 92nd Annual Hollywood Christmas Parade supporting Marine Toys for Tots! The band is led by the songwriting team of guitar player & singer Jason Ebs (Peter Criss & SWAGGERMOUTH) & the soulful-singing Janea Chadwick Ebs (Joe Cocker & SWAGGERMOUTH). This year’s line-up features Stephen Perkins from Jane’s Addiction on Drums, Adam Kury from Candlebox on Bass, Teddy Zig-Zag Andreadis from Slash’s Blues Ball on Keyboards and vocals, Roberta Freeman from Guns & Roses on backing vocals, Anne King from Billi Eilish on Trumpet, and Scott Page from Pink Floyd on Saxophone.
The JVHASB made its debut at the 89th Annual Hollywood Christmas Parade and has been performing annually ever since. Their debut show was at yet another Christmas fundraiser in 2013 at the Hilton Las Vegas for the Marine Toys For Tots Christmas Show and featured the amazing producer & guitarist Bob Kulick (KISS). This began their tradition of being joined onstage by legendary players, and since then the list has grown to include Chris Slade (AC/DC), Rudy Sarzo (Quiet Riot), Vinny Appice (Black Sabbath), Hugh McDonald (Bon Jovi), Michael Anthony (Van Halen), Glen Sobel (Hollywood Vampires), Eva Gardner (PINK), Doug Aldrich (DIO), Dave Amato (REO Speedwagon) and many others.
This year they’ll be performing a brand new original song written by Jason & Janea called “Hollywood At Christmas”, which describes the wonderful experience of the Hollywood Christmas Parade from the perspective of both the audience and band as they travel through the packed streets of Hollywood! The new single will be available for Christmas from all online retailers and released through their record label Ebsworthy Sounds. The song was recorded by this year’s line-up and was mixed & produced by Jason Ebs at their newly acquired Dragon Castle Studios in Las Vegas, which is the former hit-making studio house formerly owned by the band Imagine Dragons. The studio’s name pays homage not only to Imagine Dragons but also to Jason’s Father who said “Congratulations, Son, on your new castle”.
As long time fans of the parade, they are excited to bring their high energy performance to the stage once again for this time honored tradition! The band says “Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everybody and we’lll see you all inside the parade”! www.JetVelocityHolidayAllStarBand.com
