Биография

Music is about growth. No one knows this better than Jai Waetford, the 22-year-old Sydney artist whose genre-blending mix of pop and alt-R&B is already drawing comparisons to The Weeknd. Despite a seemly fortunate path – Jai achieved national fame within Australia, released two EPs and toured globally. Jai wasn’t handed success. Raw talent got him noticed, but it’s hard work, humility and a commitment to evolving that have earned his longevity. Though an industry veteran at 22, he exudes the enthusiasm and hunger of an artist just starting out. “To be able to think that every day I go into a studio could be the day that changes my life – that’s wild. It’s exciting to go from literally nothing to a full production with a story, narrative and lyrics and then be able to perform that”. Off the back of almost 2 years away from the music scene, Jai is re-emerging with a vision, a humbleness, but a drive that has taken his artistry to a whole new level. Jai’s vocals have hit a matured depth, while his sound will take you on an emotional journey. “My ability to incorporate my faith through this body of work has solidified a foundation that excites my new purpose”. 2021 will be a year that will undoubtedly reclaim his place in the music world.
