“Jaywalkers’ musicianship is truly tasty: both deft and impeccable but never soulless, while the players’ togetherness and interplay is mesmerising and attention-grabbing” KLOF (FRUK)

‘A beautifully performed take on Americana…a multi-layered sound that belies their trio status’ RnR Magazine

Following the release of their album Move On earlier this year, Americana powerhouse trio Jaywalkers have announced a UK tour this autumn. With singles getting picked up across national radio, including support from BBC 2 Folk Show, BBC Radio 2 Blues show, as well as BBC 6 Music Cerys Matthews show, alongside 5 Star reviews in the music press, their latest record delivers the band's virtuosic brand of Americana with a sound that feels both fresh and familiar, with the three outstanding musicians' tight bond and well-crafted, tasteful arrangements on full display.

Jaywalkers are an English Americana trio featuring Jay Bradberry (lead vocals, violin), Mike Giverin (mandolin) and Lucille Williams (double bass). Drawing from a melting pot of influences from Country heartbreak to Bluegrass dynamism, the combination of powerhouse bass, flame-fingered mandolin, blistering fiddle and three-part harmonies pack a punch as fiery as Jay's lead vocals. 

There’s no better way to experience Jaywalkers than in person. Their live shows are fun, intimate, and full of the kind of energy that can only come from a band completely immersed in the music they create.

For more than 10 years, Jaywalkers have toured regularly across the UK and Europe, honing their craft and releasing their fifth album Move On this year. Mandolin maestro Mike Giverin is also the chief songwriter, and the band's originals cover themes including the travails of the travelling musician, saving the planet and even tales of being stranded halfway up a mountain. All of these stand proudly alongside their clever covers, foot-stomping bluegrass tunes, and superb interpretations of old country classics. 

With a passion for storytelling and a dedication to their craft, Jaywalkers latest album cemented their place in the roots music community, and the autumn tour is a chance to see them at the top of their game.

Jaywalkers received support from Arts Council England for this tour, after being selected for growth support as an upcoming, local band from England.
