Ultraviolet Blue play gritty, unrestrained, blues inflected rock and roll with energy, attitude, and a sometimes meloncholic fervor. Bringing to mind influences ranging from The Rolling Stones, Janis Joplin and Neil Young to blues, jazz and 80's New Wave Ultraviolet Blue play music from the collective unconscious of shared human experience and emotion. However, unlike many bands, they don't wear their influences on their sleeve. They approach music and songcraft with an open mind and let the music shape itself. Started in August of 2002, Ultraviolet Blue is currently a 5 piece band featuring Singer/Songwriter Patricia Montfluery - Lead Vocals , Dave Anthony - Guitars, & B Vox, Bobby Wysner - Drums and Percussion, Bryan Swetnam - Keyboards, and Jerry Kelly - Bass and B. Vox. Ultraviolet Blue has a very high energy stage show fronted by the lovely and charismatic Patricia Montfleury. Her vocal stylings, although truly her own, can be described as ranging from the soft and sultry sounds of Jewel, the jazzy and mellow sounds of Alana Davis, the punky/popish sounds of Gwen Stefani to the Bluesy wailing and emotion of Janis Joplin.
Band/artist history
Started in 2002 in Columbia, South Carolina, by Patricia Montfleury and Dave Anthony who moved here from Italy and had been performing there as an acoustic duo. UltraViolet Blue features the sexy and sultry female vocals of Patricia Montfleury (who has been compared to Alana Davis, Edie Brickell and even a sweeter sounding Janis Joplin, perhaps because she drinks less Southern Comfort, her favorite); soft and smooth one minute, loud and wailing the next, backed by the bluesy and soulful grooves of Bobby Wysner and Jerry Kelly, with the brilliant keys of Bryan Swetnam, skirting a fine line between Blues, Jazz, and Rock and Roll.
