| With great enthusiasm and over 20 years of stage experience James Reeser keeps audiences alive and asking for more. Keeping focused on traditional, electric, Chicago-style blues has always been his musical goal. He tries hard to keep himself surrounded by the best musicians possible both on stage and in the studio. Having started out as a lead guitarist, James went on to become a master of the "fat-toned harp" sound and is exceptionally adept at playing chromatic harps. He has also honed his skills in the lead vocal category by performing many gigs around the US. James has played Blues clubs coast to coast in the US and also has played in Europe. Currently James and His Hot Blues Quartet perform primarily in the Midwest area. James got started playing the Blues in the early 80’s while living in New England. Living very close to many Blues based clubs he spent much time there developing a love for the music. James and his Bass player, Scott “Buck” Robinson have been together for more than 17 years. On occasion, James is fortunate enough to have a second guitar player, Pat Hansen, and or Hammond B3 player, Paul Hauschild with the band. Their talent is such that they only add to the already great lineup of the James Reeser band. James has mastered the "fat-toned harp" sound. He uses Victoria amplifiers exclusively along with Astatic microphones. The band, at this writing, is working on a CD. Please check back from time to time to see when it will be released. We will be having a CD release party and we will be making it available on this site. You can check out and dowload some older demo songs on the downloads page and I have live cuts at my myspace page,
