Amaroun is the latest project from multi-talented producer and songwriter Jay Brown, existing at the sonic crossroads where Erykah Badu, Eels, PJ Harvey and Feist meet. Songs about coming out, moving up and not being kept down, Amaroun creates a truly unique form of kaleidoscopic pop music for the 21st century. Emerging from the same tight knit community as LA Salami and Francobollo, and with support from Huw Stephens (BBC Radio 1), Chris Hawkins (BBC 6 Music), Amazing Radio & Radio X, 2018 is Amaroun's for the taking.
Currently working with close collaborator and producer Kristofer Harris (Ghostpoet / Belle & Sebastian / Bear's Den), as well as Charles Watson (Slow Club) and Carmody, she is the latest addition to the Communion Presents roster. She sold out her debut headline show at Archspace, London in March and was named 'Gig of the Week' in Music Week.
"A new British superstar in the making" - Chris Hawkins, BBC 6 Music
"Heart-stopping emotion and warm melodies" - The Line Of Best Fit
"Really nice" - Huw Stephens, BBC Radio 1
