The lineup of the Project is John Popper on harmonica and vocals, DJ Logic on turntables, Tad Kinchla on bass guitar, and Marcus Bleecker on drums.
The group released a self-titled album in October 2006 and performs concerts during breaks in Blues Traveler's touring schedule. The band has performed with guest musicians from jazz and jam bands, including Branford Marsalis, Warren Haynes, and Col. Bruce Hampton.

Famous quotes containing the words popper and/or project:
“It is clear that everybody interested in science must be interested in world 3 objects. A physical scientist, to start with, may be interested mainly in world 1 objects—say crystals and X-rays. But very soon he must realize how much depends on our interpretation of the facts, that is, on our theories, and so on world 3 objects. Similarly, a historian of science, or a philosopher interested in science must be largely a student of world 3 objects.”
—Karl Popper (1902–1994)
“The trenchant editorials plus the keen rivalry natural to extremely partisan papers made it necessary for the editors to be expert pugilists and duelists as well as journalists. An editor made no assertion that he could not defend with fists or firearms.”
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
