Band of Jays are a Huddersfield based trio playing original songs about people turning into birds, communication with aliens and other unexpected matters. Their music oozes luscious three-part harmonies, supported by delicately entwined acoustic guitar, bass and percussion. Over the years they have enjoyed performing in unusual places – think meditation centres, libraries, narrow boats, a milk float, a truck, a farmyard and in the smallest venue in the UK. The whimsical nature of their songs lends itself to playful, light and interactive performances.
‘They had a gentleness to them and a lovely rapport developed quickly.’ – Riverside School
‘Relaxed calm atmosphere was exactly what the students needed to nurture their confidence. Engagement with the students straight away, making them feel part of the concert, was excellent.’ – Seven Hills School
‘I can’t thank them enough for the time and the thoughtfulness they put into their performance and the kindness and patience while interacting with our residents. Their music was so wonderful. We have a lady who is 106 and she absolutely loved their visit to her room to sing to her.’ – The Lodge Residential Care Home
