The Fenix Rising band is a soulful rhythm and blues band led by saxophonist/vocalist Fenix. The band has held court in Portland’s most venerable juke joint, the Blue Diamond, weekly for nearly twenty years.
Fenix, with his gravelly vocals and stirring sax, reveals the depth of emotion and experience of an authentic blues man. He is backed by a smooth and well-oiled rhythm section: Jason Thomas on guitar, Jim Solberg on bass, and Dave Melyan on drums.
