Summary: JP Soars and the Red Hots, the 2009 International Blues Challenge winner, is a trio of talented musicians that each brings something special to the band. JP Soars, the guitarist and vocalist for the band is a musical melting pot, with influences form just about all genres of music, including heavy metal, which is where his professional career as a musician got it’s start. Brian Mikasa's motto is short and sweet. "Dear fellow Earthlings, My name is Brian Mikasa and I'm from the rather average city of Ventura, CA. I spend my days writing, recording, mixing, practicing and reading about how to get better at all of these things". Brian Mikasa is a singer songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Ventura, California. His styles range from classic rock influenced guitar jams to hip hop and r&b flavor. Since 2003, Brian has been performing in and around Ventura County in a few different bands; Aejis, Siren, and the B Mikasa band aka The Anunnaki. Shout outs to Zeta Recticuli. Brian has recently been recording in his home studio recording himself and other bands, audio engineering is his latest passion. Now trying to find members of a new band, Brian is a craigslist lurker creeping upon any unsuspecting musician to try and coax them into playing in his band. He loves Mexican food and dime pieces (that's hip hop slang for a good looking female.)
