About Me

AZURE ALLELE is:Jezzabelle - Vocals / Lyrics ... Mike Lester - Guitars / Backing Vocals ... Chris Ratterree - Guitars / Keyboards / Production ... Jeb Mease - Drums / Live Electronics ... Frank Becker - Bass / Management ...AZURE (az·ure ): deep blue, like the color of a clear sky ( literary ) the azure depths of the oceanALLELE (?-lel') An alternative form of a gene (one member of a pair) that is located at a specific position on a specific chromosome.Although the band’s name may suggest having one distinguishing attribute, the music of Azure Allele is poised for Diversity. Hybrid Life, the debut of this talented quintet from Richmond, Virginia, is an emotional, ethereal composit of "In Your Face" Metal and Electronica guided by the angelic vocals of Jezzabelle.Co-founders Chris Ratterree and Percussionist Jeb Mease were a recording project only for about the first 2 years, until they discovered the talents of Mike Lester for vocals. Ratterree and Mease were blown away by Mike's incredible guitar abilities and creative song writing gift. He was enlisted into the trio, then named StatikaAzure Allele is now taking shape in Richmond in 2008, with the additions of Jezzabelle's incredible vocal range and stunning lyric writing capabilities & Frank Becker's presision bass playing and extensive touring experience. As AA continues to establish their reputation and gain popularity,they are definetly a band endowed with the perfect combination to pioneer the future of Music & Entertainment.Blissful Remorse by Azure Allele
