 "Jason is a hidden talent. A hidden talent very much like how Dave Matthews was at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, and Darius Rucker and Hootie and the Blowfish were at the University of South Carolina before they each made it big. All the Jason Sapen Band needs is one good break and they'll make it big also. The Jason Sapen Band have their own style but when they perform, for example, a Dave Matthews song, I think they do it better. They respect the music of the artist whose song they are performing but give the song their own personality. These guys are very talented."

Digger Phelps - amateur music historian, ESPN college basketball analyst, former Notre Dame basketball coach, frequent Bistro on the Race patron, and Jason Sapen Band fan

"I was a band promoter years ago so I know talent when I see it, and these guys have it. We are very happy to have them here at the Bistro every Wednesday. All they need is some exposure and they will go far."

Roberto Parisi - owner, Bistro on the Race in South Bend

"I really like this band. I even know some of the songs they play. Jason is a very good singer, and I especially like that young man who plays that black guitar (Shawn)."

Shirley Russell - Shawn's grandma

 

   
"Anyone who wasn't there should have been at the Bistro last Wednesday (August 2). The place was packed and the crowd was the best I'd seen. There was a group that kept requesting U2 and I didn't know for certain if they knew any, but it turns out that they knew " With or Without you ". Jason once again proved his vocal talents as you would have sworn if you closed your eyes that you were listening to Bono himself. And when they played "Voodoo Chile" if Shawn were left-handed you'd swear it was Jimi Hendrix come back to play with JSB."

Lou Morales - music expert and weekly Wednesday night Bistro patron 

   

"I saw my very first Blammo show 8 months ago and was hooked on Jason.  Jason stuck out to me from the beginning of the very first song.  He has a presence on stage like no one I've ever seen.  He has the ability to make you feel like you are the only person in the audience.  I get completely lost in his voice.  I'm sure I'll be hearing his music on the radio in no time.  Not only he is extremely talented...he's EXTREMELY gorgeous as well!"
 
Tara Stokes - #1 Fan 

"The Jason Sapen Band is the most versatile band in this area, and they do it with acoustic instruments. There isn't anything they can't play. They take songs that aren't traditionally acoustic and create a new sound. Every time they play it is a different show and they can appeal to whatever crowd shows up."

 Cam Snyder - owner, Lakeshore Grill and The Chubby Trout in Elkhart  

 

"Well, I think they are just great. I have watched them and heard them for a long time now. I love the music."

Doris Vanarsdale - Jason and Aaron's grandmother

 

"After seeing Jason play solo last year, he quickly became our favorite local entertainer. Now we check out the Jason Sapen Band every chance we get! Jason's vocals and great guitar work are so pleasing to the ear. Everyone will soon be aware of his song writing talents. Shawn Russell's rippin' leads rival those of guitarists twice his age. The rhythm section of Scott Noyes and Ed Chistensen are always ON! We always have a great time seeing these guys perform!"

Tony, Lori, Jeff and Connie - JSB Fans
