The new album BACK TO LAND 🔮 out now!

Umbrellabirds is Sam Blickhan, Lewis Daly, and Alex Hunt. The band began as a long-distance recording project when Sam Blickhan and Lewis Daly began exchanging demos in 2013. Alex Hunt heard these sparsely beautiful demos and initially signed up to produce, but was soon recruited as a full band member. The intricate, autumnal debut album was recorded in 2014-16, the product of many late nights and countless miles of travel. Oda Almås played strings on the self-titled debut. Shortly thereafter, the band began work on their second album—Closing Ceremony (2020)—featuring a bigger sound and a wider collective of musicians including Shyam Prasad on drums, Will Harvey on strings, and Cath Day on clarinet. Their third album—BACK TO LAND—is out in November 2025. Umbrellabirds have been played on BBC 6 Music by DJ Tom Robinson and featured on the Fresh on the Net blog and the BBC Introducing Mixtape.

With her unique lyrical style Jay explores themes of love and belonging in her music, writing each song as though it is a scene in a movie. 

Jay had her first radio play in 2018 when Bob Fischer played her on BBC Radio Tees. With repeated support from local radio, this spurred her to develop as an artist and challenge herself in her songwriting. She went on to have tracks played on BBC 6 Music. Called 'genre-defying' by Tom Robinson, Jay is a Sage Summer Studios alumni and an awardee of the Do It Differently Fund through Help Musicians (2021)
