Since capturing first place at 2016’s Toronto Open Mic Contest, Richmond Hill’s Jay Dee has established her band as a high-voltage, spell-binding feature of numerous music festivals (Wintersong, Markham Village Music Festival, SOTC, Markham Ribfest, Taste of Stouffville, and more). You can find her recently released debut EP “Smiling Face” and new single “End of Time” on all streaming platforms including Apple Music, Spotify, iTunes, and more. Her band consists of the very talented: Peter Han (violin/keys), Mark Stratton (bass guitar), Danny Zaidman (electric and acoustic guitar/vocals), Shane Joseph (drums), and Tyler Reznick (saxophone/flute/trumpet). “Smiling Face” is her signature, sing-along title track – an effortless genre-bender that combines country, folk and throwback pop with a touch of rock panache. “Smiling Face” the EP clearly demonstrates that Jay Dee is more than that, yet only scratches the surface of her versatility and creativity.
