Title; Jaakko & Jay Announce Album Release Date.
Finnish duo Jaakko & Jay have announced the release of their debut album ‘War Is Noise’ on 24th May, through Xtra Mile Recordings.
Conjoining the spirit of punk with acoustic, stripped-back folksy approach, Jaakko & Jay have reached out to there fans in their home country, aswell as throughout Europe, with more or less a consistant tour on the go. There equipment includes one mic, an acoustic guitar, and a snare, and ride drum set, whilst travelling in a motor home!
J&J are gaining recognition around Europe and the UK by supporting Mariachi El Bronx, Billy Talent, among various others. They were discovered by Radio 1’s Huw Stephens at this years’ Eurosonic. Despite coming from the region of which is better known as for Santa Claus and his Reindeer, J&J could quite easily out-jolly Father Christmas! The music throws a high-spin on the more classic punk themes such as drinking, making music, drinking, and maybe just a bit more drinking! Acoustic songs that show their simplicity in a live situation by egaging the audience in, and putting smiles on every single persons face, from the teenage, to the elderly, from the sound tech guys, to the bouncers.
Jaakko & Jay have already got plenty of summer festivals and tour dates to be announced in due course, including a set at Brighton’s The Great Escape, from now, Jaakko & Jay’s popularity is just set to sky-rocket even further!
