Wed like to share a tear or two with
Jaymay. After all, it need not take more than one listen to hear just how weepy her sad sack tales of a romance that rode away can get. But, oh
if these same songs werent so captivating
If this girl with a guitar didnt paroose the contents of her half-empty heart with such wit and style
Weve no choice than to hold on to our sympathy, especially considering what this New Yorker has been up to overseas. Having shared the stage with the likes of
Bright Eyes and
Jose Gonzales, she is currently on tour in support of the UK released
Autumn Fallin' (
Heavenly) with
Okkervil River and
Caribou. And while she spends most of her time in her new hometown of London, Jaymay will be bringing it all back home, so to speak, over the next few months. On December 12th, New York fans will be able to catch her play a one off gig at the Mercury Lounge. A little later on, she'll be giving
Autumn Fallin a domestic release, care of
Blue Note Records. Look for the album March 11th. -
