25-year-old Cincinnati native Jack Kays is celebrated for his raw, emotive vocals and introspective songwriting. Beginning his musical journey at just three years old with the drums, Jack has since developed into a multi-instrumentalist blending his punk, folk, alternative and hip-hop influences into his music. His 2021 debut EP MIXED EMOTIONS, and the collaborative EP MY FAVORITE NIGHTMARES with Travis Barker showcased his exploration of themes like mental health, isolation, and addiction. Jack most recently released Disc 1 of his debut studio album DEADBEAT on August 23rd, and will be followed by Disc 2 of the album being released in Fall 2024.
To date, Jack Kays has accumulated over 400 million streams worldwide, including his 2023 hit “Caffeine”, which marked his first radio airplay and earned him Spotify’s ‘New Noise’s Artist To Watch 2024’, as well as the most recent single “Blow It” which was the lead single off DEADBEAT—Disc 1 and has been added to SiriusXM’s Alt Nation.
Through sold-out tours and the 2nd year of his hometown festival Jack’s Jam, Jack remains dedicated to his mission: making people feel less alone.
