Tony Jay (San Francisco, Slumberland Records) + The Gabys - Free Entry Show

About

Baba Yaga's Hut Presnts: Tony Jay + The Gabys & DJ Naima Lite - Free Entry Show at The Shacklewell Arms Tony Jay began as a recording project in 2006 and became a live band in 2017, drawing inspiration from failed relationships, lack of sleep, urban blight, a bicycle injury, feline mortality – the list goes on – pairing catchy melodies and hushed vocals with ethereal instrumental tracks. Over the years, the albums have been released by Slumberland, Mt.St.Mtn., Paisley Shirt Records, Galaxy Train, and KiliKiliVilla which cement Tony Jay's status as dejected crooner of the quotidian par excellence. "Michael Ramos has been a fixture of San Francisco’s vibrant indie pop scene, cropping up in Flowertown, Cindy, Sad Eyed Beatniks, and early versions of April Magazine all while maintaining his mysterious persona as Tony Jay." – Raven Sings The Blues. \-- The Gabys are a duo made up of Matt Wilkinson and Natasha Bikkul. They write mysterious, eerie bedroom pop from their home in Liverpool. This is Velvet Underground-inspired electric folk music that can roll with 90s New Zealand greats like Dadamah and The Garbage & The Flowers but also has parallels with current San Francisco lo-fi pop moodists like April Magazine and Mister Baby. They have released music with All Gone, Fruits and Flowers, and most recently, A Colourful Storm.
