Introduction
Jay Bragg plays happy music for people looking to get happy. Raised from a family of musicians going back a century and best known for his work in American Roots genres - primarily country, blues, jazz and Christmas music, Bragg gained national recognition with his 2016 “Honky Tonk Dream” album and his work as Alan Jackson’s opening act on Jackson’s 2019 arena tour. Bragg founded “A Songwriter’s Christmas” concert series in 2020 featuring his original holiday material and his North Pole alter-ego act “King Kazoo and The Reindeer Band”. Now in its 4th year, “A Songwriter’s Christmas” tours in select cities throughout December. Jay Bragg has spent a lifetime performing music - playing his first concert when he was 5 and playing 3600 shows all across America since. Aside from touring, Bragg has released 12 studio albums, opened for headliners like Chris Stapleton, Zac Brown, Dierks Bentley and Lake Street Dive. Bragg also volunteers as a music companion for hospice patients every week, carrying on a family legacy of performing music for seniors. If you’re looking to add some joy in your life for any occasion big or small, you’ve found the right musician!

We look forward to having him back on Tuesdays for dinner. It was a great turn out! He played the whole 2 hours for us very pleased. Thank you very much from Bravo and my staff.

Jay was incredibly professional from initial contact all the way through his entertaining performance. He was hired for a large birthday party and went above and beyond to make sure all the guests had a wonderful time. His musicianship is top notch and the very personable way he interacted with guests before and after the performance really set him a part from others I have hired through the years. Highly recommended!

Jay is a wonderful musician and makes the crowd feel included in the music. He plays guitar, harmonica, whistles and plays piano….its amazing to see him switch things up to add to the performance. He is very responsive in scheduling and has great follow through.

Jay is such a talent and takes great pride in his work. He puts his heart and soul into every show no matter how big or small. With his energy and magic you will feel like you are part of the show... you can't help but to get up and dance. He has a wealth of knowledge, experience, and joy! Jay plays a great mix of rock and roll, country, blues, jazz, and of course...Christmas!
