I recently brought a group of mostly seniors to Nashville for a tour. Because of the length of our bus ride, we wanted to offer an activity in the hotel that evening. I turned to Gig Salad and ended up working with Jamie because her bid was VERY affordable for our group. She far exceeded my expectations!! I asked her if in addition to doing some music, to share some of her story and what it is like being an artist in Nashville. She wove together covers and original songs as she told her story of falling in love with music, and Nashville, and her current work. Her music was fantastic and her storytelling drew the group in and really connected with her. Throughout our next couple of days in Nashville I heard our travelers saying things like, "Remember, Jamie told us about....." as they made the connections to her story throughout the city. She didn't let performing in the breakfast room of a hotel throw her off at all! Whether for just a music performance, or as a story telling singer/songwriter, I would highly recommend Jamie for future bookings. You won't be disappointed!

Response from Jay Rin:
Thank you so much for review, Lisa! 💗 I had a blast with your group and I’m so incredibly thrilled that our time together left them feeling that much more prepared to explore and connect with Music City. Best wishes to all of you, and hope you can come back to visit Nashville again in the future! 🎶
I contacted Jamie for my our baby shower event. Jamie is professional, friendly and a pleasure to work with. I would definitely recommend Jamie for your event. She put up a great show and truly brought charm to our event with the selection of baby themed and family friendly songs performed. She even helped out on things that were not her responsibility. I can undoubtedly vouch for Jamie the way she went above and beyond to satisfy her clients.

It was an absolute joy to play some music at your beautiful baby shower, Nrupen. Thank you so much for the very kind review. I wish you and your family the best with your baby on the way! 💗
She showed up on time. Played longer and sang some great tunes.

Jay took everything that I described that I was envisioning for my wedding ceremony and brought it fully to life! She and the ensemble she assembled were perfect, and I cannot recommend her enough for any event. And she’s a complete sweetheart to boot :)

Loved Jay so much. She played a fabulous mix of music and her voice was so fantastic. Every one of our guests kept complimenting on how great she was. I would love to have her play again.

Jay performed for hours at our "Manhattan in Nashville" themed party. She wore a long dress and sang at station and while walking through the party crowd in four adjoining rooms of our house. She was absolutely fantastic singing lounge music, jazz standards, and contemporary with her beautiful sultry voice. She is an ultimate professional and took my three songs for inspiration and put together a wonderful playlist in advance for me to review. We kept it all. Jay showed up on time and delightfully sang to our crowd. She can sing Adele songs with ease, to give you an idea of her range. Our guests commented on her talent all night. She can sing anything. The vibe was perfect. Needless to say, we will use her again when we get a chance and HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!

Actually had to cancel last minute due to death in the family but she was very attentive to all my emails, questions, etc leading up to the event. Pleasure to do business with and plan to utilize her services for couple events in 2020.

I had the pleasure of booking Jamie for a corporate convention in Nashville that had a large attendance of 10k+ with lots of foot traffic over two days. Jamie played to passersby and got tons to stop, and garnered great feedback, all while playing 6-hour time slots on back-to-back days (a TON of time, and her voice and playing excellent to the very end). Jamie was very communicative, arrived early both days, and was great to work with overall. I’d recommend her any time, and I hope to work with her again soon.

About
Jay Rin is a Nashville based Alt. Americana singer-songwriter heavily influenced by 60s/70s rock/country and female alternative artists of the 90s. Vocally she is right up there with the emotive vocal power of Chrissie Hynde, Jewel, Jade Bird, and Lucinda Williams. She likes to call her style of music “Folk on the Fringe”.
Her 2019 folk apocalyptic single 'Dance in the River' got her her first radio play on Nashville's top independent radio station Lightning 100, and her 2021 release of 'Trick or Treat’ was featured on a Halloween segment of WMOT in October of 2022 after the release of her spunky cult-horror-esque music video.
Jay Rin is originally from the city of Whittier in Los Angeles, CA and she got her musical start in her family home where spontaneous jam sessions and singing harmonies in the living room were a regular occurrence belting out Proud Mary, Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door, Rockin’ in the Free World, Hey Jude, American Pie, Long Long Time, Desperado, and many others.
By the age of 18, she had multiple album releases in a southern pop duo Deep Fried Bubblegum with her father Jimmy Becker, 1 solo album, and 300+ solo/duo gigs under her belt from fairs, festivals, charity events, to casinos and restaurants all over California.
In 2013 Jay made the move to Nashville to study commercial vocal performance and music business at Belmont University. In 2015 she backed up the Rolling Stones at LP Field (now Nissan stadium) with the Belmont University ensemble Chorale. During school, she interned with Nashville’s top vocal coaches Janine Le Clair at Music Row Voice and Robin Earl at Gary Earl Productions and later worked with Singdaptive - a premiere personalized online vocal teaching resource for singers after graduating.
Over the years she's developed as a vocalist and entertainer playing private events and gigging across the country and collaborating with multiple top Nashville players and Grammy award winning musicians in multi-media tribute shows and recordings. Check out her current project with Penny Lane - an all female Beatles tribute!
