Jay Bragg (formerly of Maine-based well known country band North of Nashville) moved from Portland to Nashville, TN in 2016 to join a sea change occurring in modern country aimed returning to the more heartfelt, soulful music that once dominated the genre. Bragg’s musical style blends magnetic aspects of honky tonk, pop and rock & roll into one exuberant package. Somewhere between Bruce Springsteen, Merle Haggard, Eric Church and John Mayer lies the vision of Jay Bragg - whose “engaging vocals and honest, sincere approach to writing country songs sets him apart from the legions of mainstream country artists” (no depression). SZLACHETKA (pronounced SLA-HET-KA) draws your gaze back to a simpler time when music was less about stylized production and more about its experiential nature. His songwriting finds inspiration in the threads that connect us, weaving a tapestry of familiar moments that pay homage to the past while leaning into a future that promises both wonder and grace. Rolling Stone hailed SZLACHETKA as one of the 10 New Country Artists You Need to Know, describing his forthcoming album as 'a soundtrack for both the highway and the heartland... a collection of road-dog roots-rockers and Americana ballads inspired by the people (and places) he's left behind in the rearview mirror.'
