Press Reviews July 5, 2002 Dallas Morning News Guide/Artist Spotlight written by Brian Carr Neo-soul, folk, traditional blues - not exactly. It's hard to define the Jevette Band using these terms. Singer-songwriter Sonya Jevette fronts the band, which blends folk, blues, funk and R&B. Her rich voice is similar to jazz vocalist Dianne Reeves or neo-soul singer Jill Scott, with a smooth and bold flow that engages the senses. Ms. Jevette's slice-of-life lyrics sometimes are tinged with irony, sometimes are personal and self- reflective. She's easygoing onstage and establishes synergy with her avid local following. The band has been together for about two years and is anchored by bass, rhythm guitar, drums and sax. Recently, the group has performed at local festivals and has gigged at Deep Ellum spots like Fat Ted's. If you appreciate music that is steeped in both contemporary and vintage grooves, check it out. Thursday at 8 p.m. at Obzeet, 19020 Preston, Plano. Free. 972-867-6126.
