While Jay knows enough about the hits of various eras to give the people what they want and keep musically diverse crowds moving, his interest in a wide variety of underground music finds him particularly at home curating vibes in environments that are more open to indie pop and experimentation. When he's not crafting immaculate mixes, you can find him attending shows and festivals, building batteries, gaming, or playing piano in local bands.
