Barber Jay

An old soul in a young man’s body. It happens; we just seldom get to enjoy it. As we sit and listen, we ask who does this voice remind us of.

With a sound that’s so familiar yet so new we present to you, Barber Jay.

“I grew up listening to Marvin, Barry, Teddy and a whole host of others who grabbed us with their sound, with their story.”


Born in a Jamaican family of 7 siblings, a single mother, and a father living on the run. Its no wonder the music is covered in the sounds of all the emotions associated with life’s journey.


“When I sing, I’m speaking on behalf of all those who have been where I’ve been, seen what I’ve seen, and lived where I’ve lived.”


“One day I said, Ma, I need some money.” She came home with a pair of clippers, as rumor would have it the grapevine caught wind of a singing barber!!!”
“A barber is like a therapist, a friend, a brother. People love their barber!”
