Jay Benjamin is a Greensboro, NC-based singer-songwriter whose soulful voice and introspective lyrics have drawn comparisons to artists like Hozier, JP Saxe, and Teddy Swims. Blending indie folk, soul, and acoustic pop, Jay’s music captures raw human emotion with poetic honesty and vivid imagery.

Whether performing solo or alongside his duet partner Katherine in the duo Kat and Jay, Jay creates intimate, emotionally charged live shows that feel both deeply personal and universally relatable. From songs about love and loss to reflections on resilience and redemption, his sound resonates with anyone who’s ever found beauty in the wreckage.

Jay also hosts MondayMic, a weekly open mic experience that fuses live performance with high-quality audio and video recording, helping local artists walk away with content they can share and grow with. Offstage, he runs HarmHouse, a creative studio supporting independent musicians and small businesses with branding, merch, and media tools.

Whether you find him on stage, in the studio, or behind the camera helping others shine, Jay Benjamin is a storyteller at heart — and every show is an invitation into something real.
