Jay Pollman


Born in the gritty steel town of Hamilton Ontario and raised outside the small village of Cayuga in the fields of Haldimand County, Jay Pollmann has intertwined the rural/ urban musical divide to create a unique sound he describes as ‘foot stompin’ rootsy blues’.

Primarily performing as a solo artist, Jay brings a dynamic, original and energetic ‘one man band’ type of performance to his live shows.

After a 10 year career with the dirt rock trio Gruve, the woodworker turned songwriter released his first solo EP ‘Head In The Clouds’ in 2017 produced by Aaron Goldstein out of Toronto Ontario.

Jay found himself back in the studio in early 2020 to record a full LP this go around once again with Aaron Goldstein behind the controls. Session players included Dani Nash, Steve Marriner, Carleigh Aikins, Eric Pollmann and Jesse O’Brien.

Honing his songwriting and performances on stages all the way from small town Ontario to St. John’s Newfoundland and as far as Memphis Tennessee, Jay is forging a path all his own forever chasing down that next great song and inspiration.
