Jay Diggins

Since forging his musical path over 20 yrs ago with PJ Harvey and John Parish, Jay has worked with some of the largest names in the business, supporting this summer The South (aka The Beautiful South), and Bruce Foxtons From The Jam.

Last year saw Jay return to his "roots" working with John Parish for the release of his critically acclaimed debut album 'Searching', launched to a sell-out show at Lancaster's Grand Theatre.
