Биография

Long before releasing his first project as a singer-songwriter, Jay Ollero wore many different hats working behind the scenes: audio engineer, corporate manager, music producer, hip-hop executive. It was those experiences that led him to songwriting. “In the music business it all begins with the song”, he says. Adding, “When you’re not the one writing the songs, you’re stuck waiting for the writer to deliver something honest and something pleasing to the ears. I got tired of waiting so I started writing”. Jay gravitates toward relatable lyrics and dynamic melodies, crafting songs that feel like a private conversation between two people. His live performances and story telling facilitate an experience that he equates to time travel. “I can’t change the past”, he says, “but I can change how I relate to it because songwriting is like reliving a moment in time, with the added benefit of understanding what I should’ve done or what I should’ve said”. What makes Jay stand out from other singers is his soothing, raspy voice and calming nature that combine to create a unique and intimate musical journey for those who seek it.
