"This terrifically eclectic mix of talent...always inspires some frolicking on the dance floor." -Nov 2007 - The Metropolitan
"In an area where you can't spit
without hitting a jam-funk-jazz-
soul-reggae fusion band, The
Permilla Project is a breath of fresh
air. The...quartet puts their own
butt-kickin' spin on the funk-soul-
rock blend that manages to pay
homage to the past while at the
same time transporting the music
into the future. Fun-filled, laid-back
romps like "Drink It Down" and "A
Break Would Be Nice" off the
band's album,...prove The Permilla
Project is on top of their game."
"Fuzzed out guitars, modern hooks and silky-smooth vocals bring the...sound into the 21st century."
-Sept 2007 - Delmarva Media Group

Bio
Ryan "Perm" Jackson on lead vocals and guitar, Sean "Milla" Miller, on drums, Charlie Greenhalgh
on bass, and Pete Bozick on guitar, The Permilla Project formed as a group of talented freelance
players bringing the heat night after night, eventually forging a new sound, along with a new band.
The group explores the boundaries of all music they have reverence for. This means anything is fair
game and nothing is out of the question. Deeply rooted in experimental soul and funk rock with a jam
groove, the group finds its traversement through different styles only complimented by the wealth of
musicians it's members have shared the stage with over the years. Members of The Permilla Project
have performed on stage with individuals and groups as varied as The Bridge, The Wooten Brothers,
Mookie Siegel(Bob Wier, Phil Lesh & Friends), Nicholas Peyton, Billy Taylor, Jamie McLean(Dirty
Dozen Brass Band), DJ Williams Projekt, Papa Grows Funk, The Written Prisms, Jazzam, The Grilled
Lincolns, Shane Gamble Band, and countless others over the last ten years. These collaborations
have been a blessing and have allowed the group to continually take their music in new and exciting
directions. This is the essence of THE PERMILLA PROJECT.
