"A multi-talented individual, Jay-R(born Jimmy Mercado Lewis, Jr) is taking the southern Oregon music scene by storm with his very unique style. Putting together a mix of R&B, Hip Hop, Rap and Soul you hear on the radio today, and achieving it very well. Jay-R may be new to the music industry, still working on his debut album, but has had a love for music since the day he was born, and it shows when he sings a song or steps on stage. With influences from Marvin Gaye, Boyz 2 Men all the way to Usher and T.Q. you never know what to expect when u play a track from Jay-R, but you can always bet that people will love it! With a fan base that always continues growing, especially in Southern Oregon, Jay-R along with his affiliates, have been working to spread their music as much as possible, opening up for acts such and Frankie Hernandez, Luni Coleon, Babylon Saints and the Ying Yang Twins. With the hope that his music will touch and change the lives of many with his heart felt soul/R&b songs such as Grow and Bad Guy, telling stories of his and many of his friends lives, to his more Hip Hop/Rap type songs like Sick and Spartan Jay-R has the versatility and ambition to take the world by storm"
