Ventura Artist Union Member Jason Brock Joins Philly Rock Stars for Recording One of a Kind Single
Dave Uosikkinen and Kenny Aaronson add feel and tone to a contemporary blues rock burner.
Ventura, CA, February 10, 2021 --(PR.com)-- There’s nothing like a good blues rock riff to get the adrenaline flowing, the body moving, and good times rolling. Arts non-profit Ventura Artists' Union is constantly looking for vibrant ways to engage the community it serves and right now music is a great way to do it. That’s what guitarist and union member Jason Brock aimed for with his new single “One of a Kind.” A song that turns heads, a song that makes you want to get up and move. It’s rock and roll. It’s nostalgia. And it’s good for the soul.
“When I wrote the riff,” says Brock, “I felt it in my bones.” He continues, “My jaw dropped, like when a beautiful woman walks into the room. You know, that kind of woman that stops the conversation. Silence. Powerful and alluring. That’s what this song is about. It’s about giving it all you've got even if the odds are stacked against you.” He goes on the say, “I had to write Dave Uosikkinen straight away, and ask him if he’d add his drums to it. I’m so glad he said yes!”
Dave recorded his drums tracks at DaveUDrums.com, his Philadelphia studio, and pulled in long time friend and veteran rock star Kenny Aaronson to play Bass. “I used the Glyn Johns approach to the drum track,” Dave explained, “I wanted you to feel like you were in the room with us when you listened. And I knew that Kenny would bring it all home. He always does.”
One of a Kind is the first single of 2021 for Brock, who plans to release a track a month until an album can be produced. “Hopefully we’ll get to play this one live soon,” Brock adds, “It’ll be such a great feeling to get back on the stage and rip this one out in front of an energetic crowd.” That's what Ventura Artists' Union is preparing for, an energetic reopening where live music, arts and culture can be experienced in a real life setting.
