JAYDA G

Grammy-nominated writer, producer, DJ, environmental toxicologist, campaigner and broadcaster Jayda G returned in 2023 with her new full length album, Guy, and she’ll bring it to Mallorca in June. Drawing on her House, Disco, RnB & Soul roots, the tracks are interlaced with archival recordings of her late father, the eponymous William Richard Guy. These form the bedrock of the album’s narrative, capturing a small snapshot of the American experience told through the eyes of a young African American man.

The album arrives on the back of a busy few years that have seen her Grammy-nominated for her mid-pandemic single ‘Both Of Us’, created with producer Fred again..; release a trove of high-profile remixes for the likes of Taylor Swift & Dua Lipa; tour the world’s biggest festival stages including Glastonbury & Coachella; release a compilation for the renowned DJ Kicks series; contribute to the immersive climate-focussed installation ‘Undercurrent’ alongside artists like Khruangbin, Nosaj Thing, Mount Kimbie and Bon Iver; and a life changing journey whilst undertaking filming for the documentary ‘Blue Carbon’ (hosted by Jayda with original music by Wu-Tang’s RZA) which took her to the front lines of the climate crisis to meet with those communities already affected by the looming catastrophe.
