Band Biography for jason feddy:

Five years ago, Jason Feddy found himself washed up on the shores of Southern California, in exile from a life of excess in Northern England. Feddy was reeling from several personal and professional failings, including the loss of his publishing contract with Zomba UK and a major label demo deal that dissolved unceremoniously in a dead end.

Earlier, Feddy had high hopes for his career. He was courted by several well known labels after being featured in magazines such as the respected London based Time Out. Feddy also created buzz by opening for David Gray, Ben Folds Five and Neil Young. But eventually the labels passed, citing reasons tied more to marketing than music. Soon, the accolades dried up along with the touring opportunities and other offers.

Dejected, Jason Feddy ditched his guitar and packed his bags. Within days of arriving, Feddy found himself working thousands of miles from home at the Orange County Swap Meet. It was at this expanse of knick knacks and Ginsu knives that he was befriended by a group of local musicians including drummer Evan Stone and highly sought after bass player David Carpenter.

A guru to Southern California rhythm sections such as Offspring, Stone convinced Feddy to check out his home studio and lay down a few tracks. The result was a emotional ballad called "Birds Will Sing" recorded in a single take that left Stone stunned. Before long, an album's worth of material and a live band was formed.

Today Feddy releases albums independently on the Something Something label. He's based out of Laguna Beach, where he plays at well-known local events such as the Sawdust Festival and Pageant of the Masters.
