释义 |
Jay Williams is a British musician who co-founded Broken Family Band with Steven James Adams Micky Roman and Gavin Johnson - Jay was also the guitarist in Cambridge based indie rock band Hofman. (both bands appeared on John Peel's radio sessions) Since the demise of The Broken Family Band:Jay, Gav and Mick joined forces with old friend Justin Crane (Jazz) in his band The Judge Reinholds. Jazz, sometimes roadie/driver for The Broken Family Band, was a member of the Cambridge sickpop indie band The Saphs, who enjoyed double headliners (mostly at the now defunct The Boat Race) and friendly rivalry with Hofman, back in the mid 90's. The Judge Reinholds recorded but never releasing material - the band in that form was short lived, playing a handful of gigs including The Water Rats in London, before Gav and Mick departed, with Jay following after a short run of gigs with Jazz as a duo. 2014 saw Jay releasing a double album entitled 'The Nature of Things' (released on gatefold vynil) (title inspired by De Rerum Natura ) - under the name 'Jay Williams & i strip for couples'. 'The Nature of Things' contains influences from rap, rock, alt country to opera with 'classical' strings, and brought together around 40 instrumentalists from various Cambridge bands/orchestras, including Broken Family Band's bass player Gavin Johnson and Micky Roman on drums, plus drums from Neil Rogers and bass fromChad Young (Hofman), strings from Sharon Jayne Sullivan of Keltrix, Pru and Cliff Ward of The Willows, and keyboards from Georgie Guns from Beverley Kills [https://www.facebook.com/BeverleyKills/], and a number of local musicians.
