J.R. Carroll gained his gospel pipes on Sunday mornings, leading the small-town Okie church choir by piano and voice. After finding a group of friends to sing along with, Carroll adopted the acoustic guitar and wrote what became his debut EP, “Long Story Short.” The set of songs resonated with fans of Tyler Childers, Jason Isbell, John Moreland, and Carroll’s close friend Zach Bryan.

It was to the works of Mendelssohn, Verdi and Schubert performed by his father, that Jacques, then a child, discovered music. Piano lessons followed but this instrument remained a tool among others for the songwriter he was to become. It was the power of rock music and the energy unleashed by an electric guitar that drove him to learn the instrument, looking up to Slade, the Who and the Rolling Stones. 

As a student, he wrote his first songs including « Over the Hill », an ode to the musical life ahead of him. Then came the years of composition and the first studio sessions in his native Alsace. With his demos in hand Jacques and his rock band « Filigrane » played their first gigs in the nearby clubs and regional rock events.

In the early nineties, the Strasbourg-based label Titan Records signed « Filigrane » for their debut album. TV performances on regional channels started giving the band some visibility with an appearance at the national Disc Fair in Paris.

In 1994, Jacques teamed up with guitarist and arranger René Hemmig and bassist Eric Bixel, who had already worked alongside him in « Filigrane ». He composed and wrote the lyrics of five of the ten songs on his second album « Evening Flight », recorded under the title  « Late Hours » and mixed by London soul singer Blue Rivers.

Early 2000, Jacques wrote and composed an EP, arranged by Mario Tardio and recorded at Audiosoft studios. Guitarist Christian Clua played the lead guitars for these three new songs.

After a long period away from the studios, Jacques enjoyed a refreshed boost of inspiration. He wrote and composed « Rumors on the Town », a third album of twelve tracks released on the music platforms in 2009. Jacques and Deby May shared the lead vocals on this production, once again arranged by Mario Tardio with Christian Clua as soloist. On the occasion of the album's release, director Anna Wirz shot the video for the lead song « Push » available on YouTube under the production name « Weekend On Mars ».

Jacques’ fourth album « Continuum » can now be pre-ordered here on Diggers with a delivery of the vinyl record planned for mid-December, right on time for the holiday season.

South London singer/songwriter and Brit School alumni Jaz Karis is a strong force to be reckoned with.

The intelligent & creative lens in which she views life translates in her music. The sweet tone to her voice tells the stories of her real life experiences through her soul, jazz and R&B infused music.

Jaz received strong support from COLORS with her single ‘ Petty Lover’ gaining 10M views & 5.6M streams on Spotify. 2017 saw debut EP ‘ Into the Wilderness’ feature exciting collaborations such as TINYMAN, Blue Lab Beats & Spacey Blak who featured on the favoured ‘ Sugar Don’t be Sweet’. Her second EP, ‘ Live at the Diary’ reflects her love of performing live. In 2019 she released ‘ Summer Stories’ working with Ari Pensmith & P2j.

Her empathic nature extends beyond her artist project into her songwriting as its own entity of passion. Cuts include ‘ Secrets’, Justine Skye. Her latest EP ‘ All Eyes On U’ received exceptional support as Jaz graces the cover of Tidal’s Rising R&B & Amazon music’s fresh R&B playlists as well as further Apple & Spotify playlisting.

At the age of six, Jazz Emu fell in love with a second hand saxophone and proudly took it to a trial lesson. Within a minute the teacher had decided that Jazz’s hands were unusually small, and his shiny brass hopes were crushed with a plastic beginner’s clarinet. Several years of funk-repressed classical training followed, with the groove bubbling pianissimo under the surface. When he finally heard the syncopated hi-hats in Bill Withers’ Use Me, there was no going back. Jazz pulled out the dusty old sax and got to work. He would stay up late at night recording shining synths and near-silent screaming sax solos (no noise after 10pm) on his mum’s BOSS BR900-CD recorder. The results were too powerful to show the general public.

Ten years later, armed with an Akai EWI-4000S, a right hand calloused by synth-glisses and a handsome selection of suits, Jazz has set out to change the world. Combining the lyrically pleonastic and musically dank, this project is an auditory experiment in high-art meets low-art. Imagine performing a Shakespearean sonnet over The Sims loading-music. Or reading Homer’s Iliad off of a toilet roll. Imagining it? Good. You’re about three eighths of the way to grasping the sonic mythos of Jazz Emu.

Biography of Jazzmeia Horn
Multi Award Winning Artist, Composer, Arranger, Educator, and Founder of Artistry of Jazz Horn

In the two years since Jazzmeia Horn bowed with her first album, the GRAMMY Award®-Nominated A Social Call, she’s been very busy performing on international tours as well as teaching masterclasses and workshops globally, honing her vocal skills to a finely tuned level while writing songs of personal relevance and social message, and perfecting a fearless approach to improvisation and performance in general.

  The convergence of this drive and development has resulted in what is sure to be hailed as one of the most courageous recordings of 2019—The Grammy Nominated and NAACP Image Award Winning Love and Liberation—filled with songs of daring musicality, emotional power, and messages of immediate relevance. Shortly after composing and arranging Love and Liberation, a book was in the making for Horn. Her first book Strive From Within: The Jazzmeia Horn Approach focuses on sharing Jazzmeia's knowledge on using her voice as a female vocalist and artist in the male dominated Jazz industry. The first of its kind, the book teaches singers how to serve Jazz music along with the many roles of a good vocalist.

Blessed with a fitting name for her chosen path—it was Horn’s jazz-loving, piano-playing grandmother who chose “Jazzmeia”—the singer was born in Dallas in 1991, grew up in a tightly knit, church-going family filled with musical talent and started singing as a toddler. She attended Booker T. Washington High School for Performing and Visual Arts, known for launching such musical greats as Roy Hargrove, Norah Jones, and Erykah Badu. Her education included steering herself to the mentors who would guide her passion for jazz, like Jon Hendricks, Abbey Lincoln, and Betty Carter.

In 2009, Horn moved to New York City to enroll in The New School’s Jazz and contemporary music program. In 2013, she entered and won a Newark-based contest named for an initial inspiration—the Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Competition. In 2015, she won the Thelonious Monk Institute International Jazz Competition, the most coveted award a young jazz musician can hope to attain. Part of her prize was a contract with Concord Records, which led to A Social Call, and Love and Liberation. 
Horn’s latest project, Where We Are, is self released and consists of poems and original compositions written during the pandemic to reflect the times, and encourage people to strive through adversity. It was recorded live at Minton’s Playhouse, the historical landmark for the sake of the jazz tradition and legacy.

John Callum ‘JC’ Stewart has packed a lot into his 27 years. A self-released single when he was 18. A record deal with Warner Music, signed after an old-fashioned bidding war, when he was 21. A Number One single in the Czech Republic in the teeth of lockdown, underpinned by gold-selling success in Eastern and Northern Europe. A touring and writing partnership with good friend Lewis Capaldi – the Irishman co-wrote ‘Hollywood’ (current Spotify streams: 84 million, give or take) from the Scotsman’s blockbuster debut album, Divinely Inspired to a Hellish Extent. A co-write with Niall Horan on his own 2021 song ‘Break My Heart’. An EP with Tom Odell, one of JC’s North Stars and true heroes. A proper viral moment with his parodic cover of Friends theme ‘I’ll Be There For You’, which went from TikTok to ABC News to an American media storm after Jennifer Aniston reposted it. A deep-seated creative bond with Foy Vance, aka the patron saint of modern Irish songwriters. Now, JC Stewart returns - rebooted, refreshed, realigned and stronger than ever - with his new record label Stanley Park, to continue his musical journey.

In the decade since Jenny Owen Youngs last released a full-length album, she’s toured the world, co-written a #1 hit single, launched a wildly popular podcast, landed a book deal, placed songs in a slew of films and television series, moved from Brooklyn to Los Angeles to coastal Maine, and gotten married, divorced, and married again. She’s done everything, it seems, except release another album….until now.

Avalanche, Youngs’ exceptional debut for Yep Roc records, offers up an achingly beautiful exploration of loss, resilience, and growth from an artist who’s experienced more than her fair share of each in recent years. Produced by Josh Kaufman (Bonny Light Horseman, The Hold Steady, Cassandra Jenkins, Josh Ritter) and written with a series of friends including S. Carey, Madi Diaz, The Antlers’ Peter Silberman, and Christian Lee Hutson, the songs are deceptively serene here, layering Youngs’ infectious pop sensibilities atop lush, dreamy arrangements that often belie the swift emotional currents lurking underneath. Her performances, meanwhile, are riveting and nuanced to match, gentle yet insistent as they reckon with the pain of regret and the joy of redemption, sometimes in the very same breath. The result is the most raw and arresting release of Youngs’ remarkable career, a brutally honest, deeply vulnerable work of self-reflection that learns to make peace with the past as it transforms doubt and grief into hope and transcendence.

Jeune Loup - Mike Shabb

Jephté Kweto (professionally known as jev.) is a Congolese-Canadian refugee who considers himself a loner. The loner theme aims to highlight the positive aspects of being someone who paves their own path. Having lived in the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Africa, and Canada, jev lacks a specific home city to pay homage to, thus he gravitates towards a more worldly and individualized sense of home. As a citizen of the world, jev aims to bring people together from all walks of life through his “it’s okay to be different” overarching message and his experimental music, which incorporates various styles and genres (particularly alternative hip-hop, classic hip-hop, and R&B). Inspired by legends like Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Andre 3000, Nas, YMCMB, and Jay Z, jev is vying for his own spot upon the Mount Rushmore of the genre. 
He released his first EP “The Color Grey.” in December 2022, and his lead single from the project reached #1 on the Spotify US Viral 50 chart less than a month later. This inspired jev to quit his day job, hire major music firms for his management and legal representation, and continue releasing consistently towards another and even stronger body of work. “The Color Grey.” garnered attention from prominent media outlets such as Lyrical Lemonade, Pigeons & Planes (Best New Artists of 2023), and Sheesh Media. He also landed on the cover-photo for two major editorial playlists: Northern Bars and Alternative Hip-Hop between April and June 2023, and appeared on Mellow Bars, Most Necessary, Fresh Finds: Hip Hop, and many more since gaining traction on TikTok and Reels. Jev has amassed over 15 million streams on Spotify alone, as well as 4.5 million aggregate views with 2 million aggregate likes across his TikTok and Instagram reels content. Jev also teamed up with local Toronto Film School students to shoot his music videos free-of-charge, which has led to him growing his YouTube following from the ground up to almost 10k subscribers. The emerging rapper’s plans for the second half of 2023 include a six-song EP, a Pigeons & Planes NYC showcase as his debut show, and his debut album, when angels cry. He is also being featured by Spotify as a Radar Canada artist for the entirety of Q3, landing him a major city-centre billboard in Dundas Square beginning July 14th.

Jhorman Peña, born in Venezuela, VOICEX born in Spain. We have a huge influenced by orchestral music and techno.

Born and raised in South East London, Chinese-Vietnamese-British artist Jianbo is a standout voice emerging from the UK’s rap scene. Fusing grime and garage with post-punk, jazz, and orchestral music, Jianbo’s work is a reflection of the world that shaped him: a patchwork of underground energy, immigrant narratives, and raw storytelling.

Jianbo has earned a growing cult following through his breakout EPs Yellow Peril and Tears In My XO Sauce, as well as collaborations with Nix Northwest, Denham Audio, and BABii, carving out a distinct space in the UK underground with his intricate lyricism and versatile sound. His early singles, Mongkok Madness and Chinatown Alley, established his signature aesthetic, where the vivid cinematic textures of Wong Kar Wai and the boldness of classic martial arts films shape both his music and visuals. 

With each release, Jianbo continues to push the boundaries of UK rap, standing as a voice for a generation of East Asian artists who grew up without seeing themselves reflected in the music they loved.

A blend of blatant honesty and unflinching hope permeate American singer-songwriter Jillian Jacqueline’s music. Inspired by an array of musical greats from Patsy Cline to Elvis Presley, Patty Loveless and Mary Chapin Carpenter, Jacqueline’s precocious talents and ability to dig deep make her a natural-born storyteller. With country-pop sensibilities, inviting melodies, honeyed vocals and sharp, self-aware lyrics, Jacqueline’s music has left listeners spellbound and landed her on a range of iconic stages from the Ryman Auditorium to the Grand Ole Opry and Late Night with Seth Meyers. Born in Chester Springs, PA, the artist began writing and performing at a young age. Jacqueline landed a gig on Broadway at 9 years-old where she was discovered by musical icon Kenny Rogers. After moving to Nashville, Jacqueline swiftly made a name for herself. In 2014, she collaborated with Richard Marx on a string of songs including her single “Overdue,” featuring harmony vocals from Vince Gill. Since then, her releases have amassed millions of plays and critical acclaim from Rolling Stone, NPR, CMT, Billboard and more. After signing with Big Loud Records in 2016, Jacqueline released a series of EPs and singles—like “If I Were You,” featuring Keith Urban. In 2022, Jacqueline released her debut album Honestly (produced by long-time friend and collaborator Tofer Brown) via Virgin Records. But her forthcoming album, MotherDaughterSisterWife, is her most evocative offering yet. After a period of intense transformation following the birth of her son, Jacqueline discovered her creativity wasn’t stifled—it soared. “Becoming a mother opened me up to acknowledging my own stories, patterns and scars in a way I hadn’t anticipated,” she says. “I felt like I was bursting at the seams with inspiration—it was relentless.” Jacqueline’s unmatched introspection allowed her to examine her new role whole-heartedly, bringing her signature bare-it-all storytelling to even greater depths. In fact, tracks like “Year of the Dragon” and “Bright Eyed Baby” (produced by Ian Walsh) shimmer with an emotional honesty so brutal it’s downright beautiful. 

This new album marks an evolution in Jacqueline’s musical landscape—one that’s as vibrant as it is visceral. “At its heart, this record is a time capsule of the most intimate moments of a wilderness season.”

João Gilberto, né en 1931 à Juazeiro, au Brésil, est l'un des pionniers et maîtres incontestés de la bossa nova, un style musical qui a révolutionné la musique brésilienne et mondiale dans les années 1950 et 1960. Sa voix douce et feutrée, associée à son jeu de guitare syncopé et minimaliste, a défini le son de ce genre musical, qui mêle samba et jazz avec une élégance et une sophistication uniques. João Gilberto est surtout connu pour avoir popularisé la bossa nova avec des classiques comme Chega de Saudade et Garota de Ipanema, en collaboration avec des artistes tels que Tom Jobim et Vinícius de Moraes. Son approche innovante et son influence profonde ont fait de lui une figure emblématique non seulement de la musique brésilienne, mais aussi de la scène internationale, marquant de son empreinte des générations de musiciens et d'auditeurs.

One of the most critically acclaimed contemporary singer-songwriters and one of the most in-demand producers around ("A legitimate giant of Irish music." - Hotpress), Joe Chester has been nominated for both the Choice Music Prize and the Meteor Irish Music Awards. His debut album, A Murder Of Crows, was included in the books 101 Irish Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, by Tony Clayton-Lea and Buried Treasure Vol. 2 by Dan Hegarty and recently in The Sunday Times list of the best Irish albums of all time - "Chester's debut solo album is a perfect pop record.

Johanna Warren is a multi-instrumentalist and producer who began her career as a singer/songwriter in the Brooklyn-based psych folk band Sticklips. The group released two albums before disbanding in 2012, and after a stint performing backup vocals for Iron & Wine, Warren self-released her debut solo album, Fates, in 2013. The album prompted her to tour nationally under her own name, and since then, she’s led a nomadic existence, calling cities across the United States home for short periods of time.

Over the past few years, Warren has toured alongside Mitski, Julie Byrne, and Marissa Nadler, but a life on the road hasn’t slowed her output. In 2015, she released her sophomore album nūmūn to acclaim, propelling her to the forefront of artists to watch in the second half of the decade. Warren dedicated the spellbinding collection of acoustically-driven songs to the phases of the moon and to the divine feminine–forces of great power and consequence that are all-too often overlooked.

The following year, Warren announced a twin set of albums released on her own label Spirit House, which promoted a radically inclusive, artist-friendly ethos. Each of the songs on Gemini I corresponds with a song on Gemini II, which debuted later, in 2018. The two albums are in conversation with one another, offering up a character sketch of dueling personalities vying for acceptance. To contrast nūmūn, which was rendered using a simple palate of acoustic instruments, the arrangements on Gemini I and II integrated a wide array of instrumentation and more palpable percussion, furnished with help from a small cohort of Warren’s longtime collaborators.

Following the release ofGemini II, Warren embarked on her extensive Plant Medicine Tour, during which she invited local herbalists, farmers, and activists to come and share resources with attendees about alternative remedies. In the spare moments between tour stops, Warren recorded her latest album in studios across the United States. Entirely self-produced,Chaotic Good is Warren’s first album for Wax Nine/Carpark and it is her boldest to date, finding her in a state of transition as she introduces listeners to a new phase of her artistry.
