● BYOB - $10 fee per group

Dennis Jay got a large part of his early musical education as a child of an American military family living in Germany. He found inspiration and comfort by listening to Armed Forces Radio Network. “Every day I’d come home from school and turn on AFN,” Jay says. “Most of the DJs were regular GIs who’d brought their record collections overseas. A lot of the music was from the South and West, and they’d play folk songs, cowboy songs, country & western, and rhythm and blues along with early rock & roll. There were no artificial barriers between these types of music.”
This eclectic blend laid the foundation for Jay’s original songs, which are on full display in his new Western & Country release. Produced by acclaimed musician Lloyd Maines (Joe Ely, Robert Earl Keen, Dixie Chicks), Jay pulls together elements from traditional genres including classic C&W, folk, blues, cowboy songs and Mexican ballads, to create a cohesive, fresh sound that’s entirely his own. http://www.dennisjay.com/
