Jay Nemor Electrified [2021] - Alive [Tesla Groove #TSL009] (Full Album)


Jason 'Jay' Nemor Harden (aka Jay Nemor) was born in Houston, TX. He learned bass and saxophone at a young age, but pursued a career in basketball which brought him to Iceland aged 17 (in 1998). With spare time being a basketball player he reconnected with music and in 2003 he was encouraged to join a Motown tribute band. 

He released a self produced debut album "Just Sayin'" in 2014 and a few singles which caught the attention of Alberto Zanini of Tesla Goove (Cannonball) who signed him to the label in 2018.

His latest album "Alive" has been at least two years in the making and was released digitally on 7 Aug 2021 with vinyl copies being available in October (from Tesla Groove). It contains two singles "Break Free" and "Sitting On Top Of The World" and a cover of Massive Attack's 1991 hit "Unfinished Symphony", then just called Massive, which featured Shara Nelson on lead.

His deep voice is a modern day Bill Withers with elements of Gil Scott-Heron.

A small gripe: £18 seems excessive for a ten track digital album when most sell for less than half that price!
