As a session guitarist, Jed has worked with a multitude of artists and producers, providing guitar work both live and in the studio for the likes of Otto Aday, Mari Mathias, Foxxglove, Hemes, Half Happy, Alina., Klementyna, The Honest Poet, Moc Isaac and more.
Since April 2019, Jed has been the guitarist, arranger and composer for the alt-pop artist Foxxglove and has been involved with the project since its inception. He has been a co-writer on many tracks and has been responsible for controlling the backing tracks used for live performances.
In 2021, he joined the backing band of Welsh language folk artist Mari Mathias playing both guitar and bouzouki, and providing backing vocals for her upcoming album cycle. Her debut album Annwn released in March 2022 features his playing throughout.
Around this time, he also began to perform with Hemes as part of her live band, beginning with her performance on Adam Walton’s show from FOCUS Wales 2022.
In early 2023 dreamy indie rock band Half Happy burst onto the scene and recruited Jed to cover their extra guitar parts on stage.
With his melodic playing style and versatility; accuracy and passion, Jed is a fine choice for all your guitar playing needs.
