jb screams started in 2001 when jb (apparently) was without a band and massively bored. A project that had no real intent on doing anything but write the casual singer-songwriter songs every now and then. That's exactly what happened.
Until 2007 when there was more time and space for music than in the previous years. The band 'The Shifter' started and the creative mind was in high gear. Early 2007 the band was making some real progress but there was one thing missing for jb. Where the band (now known as 'Skyline Fugitives') was doing the rock thing, he had other things going through his mind. This resulted in the jb screams project having new life blown in to it.
Since may 2007 there've been numerous songs on the jb screams myspace page, all in one way or another exploring the differences in musical taste, capabilities, recording equipment and at times a combination of those. Most have the typical jb melancholy to them but there's enough fun to be had.
The plan is to release an EP in summer and perhaps involve a band to fill in the blank spots. jb: "standing on a stage with a laptop and a guitar is really boring to look at, so I'd rather make it difficult and rearrange the songs where needed and perform with a good band than stand there like I know how a computer works, which I don't....really.".
The songs currently on the myspace page tend to be electro influenced songs, but there's a whole lot more to the jb screams archives. All in all, the combination of this, indie rock, acoustics and jb's voice make for some nice tunes.
Please check out what jb has been up to on the writing front on www.myspace.com/affievoes for Affie (Afra Voesenek). One of the J Woods Projects. Some amazing songs were written and produced by jb for this wonderful lady with a tremendous voice.
Currently jb is co-working with some of R'Dam's finest on the debut EP and will probably take the stage this summer. Looking for the band is the latter! Always up for some jb is Gil Ramalho who has previously played with jb in 'eve of reality'. another bass/key/guitar player are on the way!
