As an answer to prayer for "...more
territory, Lord!", God has brought Paul together with some wonderful
musicians to form "The Jesscott Praise Band"! The Band is in addition
to Paul's solo ministry, and will perform at select concert events
with a vision to reach people for Christ in venues where
a full band may be more appropriate than a single artist.
In
addition to Paul, the members are:
Dana Roy: Drums. Dana lives in Hudson Falls, NY.
He and Paul met in the mid 70's, and played together in several bands
including "Travelin'" and "Sensation". After being away from
the drums for almost 10 years, Dana is grateful for the
chance to play again, and his desire is to use his abilities
as much as he can for the Lord.
Mike Gitto: Bass, Vocals, Guitars. Mike
lives in Fort Edward, NY. He played bass guitar and sang with
Paul and Dana in the band "Sensation", and after being away from music
for several years is now enjoying using his musical talents for the
Lord!
Steve Morse: Acoustic guitar, vocals. Steve
is from Granville, NY. Steve is a singer and songwriter, and
his song "I Found A Friend" is featured on Paul's CD, "Now And Again".
In addition to his musical talents, Steve helps out the ministry with
promotion and booking.
"Kenny T" Fuller: Lead guitar, keyboards, vocals. Kenny
is from South Glens Falls, NY, and his many God-given talents are
also wonderful additions to the group. Kenny is a songwriter as well,
with his debut album, "All In Time", recorded right here at our
studio in 2007. Kenny's guitar and vocal talents can also heard
on several of Paul's CDs.
Jessica Gibbs: Vocals. Paul's daughter Jessica has been singing since
she was about 8, and studied voice under Judy Lundgren at Adirondack
Community College in Queensbury, NY. Jess lives with mom and dad and
her brother Scott in Hudson Falls, NY. She recently graduated from
Sage College of Albany with a AAS degree in Interior Design. Jessica
hopes to be able to use her singing and designing skills in service
to God and his people.

Each member of the band brings thier own unique style and talents. But they all share one thing: a love for the Lord and the music He has given them! Combined with the desire to use their gifts and talents for the Lord, that all adds up to a winning musical team for Jesus!
