AJAYE – “GROWING UP (LIVE AT THE HEN HOUSE)”
A SPILL EXCLUSIVE VIDEO PREMIERE
Ajaye (“A.J.”), spends her time in her home of Nashville TN fitting the truth into a three minute package. Inspired by artists like Brandi Carlile and Shawn Colvin, her writing lives between modern folk and Americana and explores the every day in an extraordinary way. Born in a small town in British Columbia, Canada, her inspiration comes from growing out of what was expected of her to carve her own path in life.
Her upcoming acoustic EP Silverline is a beautifully crafted collection of songs and accompanying live videos that takes a look at what it means to grow up. Without being overly wistful, Ajaye reflects on common themes we can all experience and brings an honesty tempered with compassion and optimism.
The videos will be released individually starting September 2023. The first video of this series, “Growing Up”, is a sonic, lyrical and visual introduction to Ajaye’s world. The first of seven songs offers a reminder to be kind to oneself through every season of growth because we never stop learning about what it means to be ourselves.
“At some point, we all break free from the stories we believed and begin to write our own,” says Ajaye.
“Growing Up” was written by Ajaye and Joni Delaurier, produced by Joe Ernewein, engineered and mixed by Steve Dawson at The Hen House Studio (Nashville TN), and the video was filmed and edited by Jason and Chelsea Garriott of Music Neighbors.
Earning a name performing in the Nashville club scene, including regular performances at the legendary Bluebird Cafe, Ajaye is an award-winning artist who has built a solid reputation as an outstanding vocalist and songwriter both in Canada, the United States and Europe. She was awarded the 2019 British Columbia Country Female Artist of the Year, has performed on Today in Nashville and CTV Morning Live, is an endorsed artist with AMI Guitars and Lanikai Ukuleles, and performs regularly across North America and Europe.
Growing Up will premiere on September 13th 2023.
Ajaye will be on tour in Netherlands, Germany and Switzerland between September 12 and 30, 2023. Show cities can be found on her website at:
