Disappointed
RSTA doing business
Jesse has been rocking for a long time. The veteran of several Pittsburgh based bands, Jesse has finally found a winning formula with Ritual Space Travel Agency. The band's mix of jazz, rock, funk, metal, and some other things just to get your attention, has brought praise from audiences and critics alike in the steel city.
5 years together has produced 2 full length cds (on Columbus, OH based Bandaloop Records), a multitude of mentions in the local free weeklys and the chance to play in front of national acts like Dave Matthews and Santana in front of thousands.
Pounding away on their instruments is just one way the boys from RSTA have found success. they have also manipulated the world wide web from their home site, ritualspace.net , and the mp3 megasite, mp3.com which has thrust their music out to an accepting worldwide audience.
All Ages Show sent our correspondent Dave out to Jesse's house in Pittsburgh to talk to him about how the band has used the net and how they run their live shows. We also got a little inside info on their new record. Check out part of the interview here. Whle we were there, Dave also talked Jesse into singing a version of his classic song "Disappointed" with the stand up bass providing the tunes. You can get an mp3 or a video of the performance, right here on our site
