BAND BIO:
The JAES are a modern folk quartet; blending American roots and Celtic music with original instrumentals and multi-part part vocals.

With their love of Celtic traditions and American roots, The JAES blend dance band grooves with melodic and harmonic threads to weave a sonic tapestry that reflects their exploratory approach to the musical traditions they draw on for inspiration. Whether playing traditional pieces or new compositions, their music exudes playfulness and confidence that is a joy to see and hear.
