New Raspberry Bandits
New Raspberry Bandits is the new band from Vanessa and Jamie Saft. Virtuoso pianist/guitarist/composer Jamie Saft has been a crucial member of the downtown scene since the early 1990s, both as sideman and as leader of his own ensembles, including the New Zion Trio, The Jamie Saft Trio, and Grizzly Adamz. This children’s music debut with luscious vocals performed and written by Vanessa Saft boasts folk roots but covers a lot of ground. NRB’s new CD “Little Birds and Big Trucks” is out soon on Veal Records. Rockin’ whippersnappers will be head bopping to “Big Trucks” and seemingly angelic types will soon be belting out “Lula”.
