In a genre mostly known for
faceless wailing samples and electronic replacement of
emotions, Queens New York native, Jay
Williams, stands as one of the few young and sustaining male dance-recording artists to
break the mold. Internationally recognized on
the dance floors and found in every DJs crate of club classics, Jay Williams is
respected for his creative songwriting, Billboard #1 and Top 10 club offerings including
the socially conscious multi-smash "Sweat", U.K. classic "Testify",
"Its Over", the soaring falsetto rendition of Blue Magic's "Look Me
Up"; among numerous featured collaborations with top dance producers/remixers as
Junior Vasquez, Mousse T, Roger Sanchez, Urban Blues Project, C&C Music Factory, Hex
Hector etc. |
Influenced by the soulful 70s Sounds-of-Philly, Stax, and Motown
artists (Al Green, Eddie Kendricks, Pendergrass) Jay began as a background session
singer while studying music and law at New York's Baruch College. Jays unique
vocal range, live showcase energy, word of mouth, and definitive
deal with Big Beat/Atlantic Records
lead to Billboard, Spin, MTV and Top of the Pops recognition. Notwithstanding
his early 90s underground catapult and big break at New Yorks original Club
Sound Factory, Jay Williams continues to thrust further into mainstream U.K. to Japan
venues and successfully bridge the gap between dance music, R&B, underground club
culture and fashion. |
Jay Williams' collective experience has
evolved in the launching of JW Entertainment, Inc. Currently
producing new artists as well as recording his Neo-Classic Soul project (with
dance remixes to follow),
Jay's career continues to develop and contribute to a diverse on-stage and in-studio
resume that reads from Paul Simon, Patti Labelle, Luther
Vandross to the Baha-Men, and a long who's who
list of major R&B heavies. |
