Main Presenter: Michael Jay
guitarist/songwriter/performer
When he was young, Michael Jay asked his parents for a guitar, but instead they bought a piano for the family...so all could share it. Luckily for Michael, his grade school friend Tom didn’t like playing guitar and soon gave his to Michael. And so began his musical journey.
Michael is a self-taught musician, early on focusing on fingerpicking & theory, and playing with small bands with friends. As he got older, though he quit performing, he continued to work on his playing and writing music for enjoyment.
Since the 2000’s, Michael Jay returned to live performance as "Hey Michael Jay" at street fairs, open stages, and even received an invitation to appear at the 2016 Florida Folk Festival. Currently he has a leadership role with The Tampa Bay Fingerstyle Guitar Guild...a talented group of guitarists founded in 2005.
Michael's new album "Wheels of Night" can be enjoyed on all streaming platforms, plus at HeyMichaelJay.bandcamp.com.
