About Band
In an era where a multitude of artists struggle to define their musical image from the maelstrom, there are others that emerge with a fully formed musical identity in full command of their craft. Jamie Belgrave aka Jaye B is certainly regarded to be among the latter description. Tracks leaked from his upcoming album (Soul Agenda) are an enthralling introduction heralding the emergence of a significant new talent, one whose musical sound is distinctive yet familiar in a great way.
Born & raised in the north west of England maturing in London where he explains “I spent the most part of my teens” He grew to love music from an early age and soon began to form his own musical ideas. A self-taught musician with no formal education he spent most of his spare time experimenting to hone his skills & exclusive sound. Jaye is an unsigned Lyricist, Singer/Songwriter, Bassist & Poet with an extensive catalogue of unreleased material, he has featured on a number of releases most recently on Do You Believe In Angels with Al Jones which has received critical acclaim.
Each of the tracks on the Ep have a distinctly different style which has come to define Jaye’s approach or as he would say “I have an eclectic taste in what I like to listen to” Believe that is conveyed in his approach to his own creations influences across many genres the like of Marvin Gaye, Gil Scott Heron, John Lennon & Bob Marley to name a few. As he grew from strength to strength performing at a host of London parks, local clubs and open mics his popularity grew.
His upcoming release has been recorded, mixed and mastered at Westpoint Studio London, where he has been able to use his attributes and in his words “some fantastic facilities and staff” in creating a fresh yet current compilation, commanding his own style influenced by the soul and funk of his early years. To Myself the first of the tracks profoundly demonstrates this from the slap bass groove and crisp 80s kit to the lyrical array and raw vocals, that capture the energy conveying strong individuality and a positive message which is a factor that runs throughout the album.
Mind State and also The Climb each show an alternative edge again illustrating the depth of his talent which have enabled Jaye to tailor a widely various yet cohesive, succinct sound. As he says “it’s a vibe, I don’t think like; let me do this or that style. I take each song like the first and just do what feels right at that moment”. Above all else Times like These is sure to please swathes and increase his fan base even further. Jamie Belgrave is certainly one to be considered for notoriety simply due to the originality, variety and quality of his music.
