Born in a bassbin sometime in the 80s; RED JAY was brought up on a diet of punk, rock and reggae, via Radio Lancashire and Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry. For the last 20 years, he has represented Lancashire and the North in several guises, including as part of the Trailer Trash, POWAH, Subversion and Underground Roots crews.

With a recent line-up change Blonde on Bob are now a six piece band including vocals, guitars, keyboards, accordion, harmonica, fiddle, mandolin, bass, sax, flute and drums. Their repertoire includes a whole range of Dylan compositions ranging from material recorded in his early folk music days, through the contributions he’s made to rock, country, blues and gospel music, right up to and including songs featured on his most recent albums.
