GeeJay are vocalist and songwriter Gina Jane (aka Georgina Tunbridge) and producer,
saxophonist and keyboardist Jacob Lobo who met whilst both working as
baristas in a coffee shop in Harringay (London). They started jamming on the
coffer shop's old piano and soon developed their own sound fusing soul, funk
and jazz with urban hip-hop.
They released a debut EP "Thru Channel" followed by "City" in 2019. The same year they won Yamaha’s Funk It Up Competition
which won them the opportunity to play at the Love Supreme Festival.
Their latest single "Ordinary Girl" was released yesterday (6 Aug 2021). Whilst the writing credits
for their last single "Stronger" are attributed (on Spotify at least) to Gina & Jacob, it sounds
like a cover of the Amy Winehouse song "Stronger Than Me" to my
ears!
They are scheduled to appear at The 100 Club in Oxford St with Atmosfear (a Brit-funk band from the 80s) on 26 Feb 2022.
