With the mixture of influences from Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin to Flume and RL Grime, his eclectic sound brings something new to the table. Having opened for artists as big as GRiZ, Galantis, and Big Gigantic, he has made headway in the EDM scene with his funky jamtronica feel and an undertone of bass. Born in Morgantown, West Virginia, but currently resides in Louisville, Kentucky, he adds the perfect taste of classical piano that amplifies dynamics of songs for a keen electronic sound. Jason’s love of music began when he started learning piano at the young age of 6. Motivated by his admiration for classical rock – once he realized he could take those songs and play them, it propelled him into perfecting an instrument so he could let out emotions that cannot be put into words. Obtaining a Bachelor’s Degree in Music Technology from California University of Pennsylvania, Jason has the tools, knowledge, and soul to create infinite melodies that will brighten our days. Having the ability to perform live on the keys while expressing himself and exploring his own creativity, along with renditions of others, drives his passion to produce and showcase his talents to the world. Since his debut EDM keyboard set in 2017 for Brownies and Lemonade, Jason has been featured on various festival lineups such as Asteria, Interstellar, and Lost Lands. His recent collaboration projects consist of working with CloZee, LUZCID, and Zeds Dead. He has also appeared on Lizzy Jane’s and TVBOO’s podcasts to talk about his career and future projects. His use of piano, keytar, and synthesizers keep him busy as he works on new originals and remixes for other well-known staples in the electronic scene. Constantly creating and upping the ante, he wishes to collaborate with other artists by adding piano to their tracks and positively affect more people with his talents. Honeycomb Honeycomb is in his essence a walking, breathing, anywhere, anytime musical instrument; embracing spontaneity in his performance, and elevating the moment for anyone who wishes to participate and lend an ear. Although widely renowned for his beatboxing, Honeycomb is furthermore a talented producer, DJ, pianist, guitarist, and drummer. If it can be played, he’ll rock it and ride the groove until there’s no more to be had. In his years of performance and travel, Honeycomb has toured nationwide supporting bands, DJ’s, and a diverse range of talent, receiving widespread support & respect of peers, and collaborating with the likes of T-Pain, Moon Hooch, Mija, Liquid Stranger, 12th Planet, Claude vonStroke and Big Gigantic - to name just a few. Whether it be playing his tracks out in sets, being invited to support national tours, or spontaneously hopping on stage for a b2b or performance with an MC, Honeycomb is forever welcome and rarely turns down an opportunity to crack a smile and move the floor. Year after year he’s been invited back to Electric Forest, Dirtybird Campout, Holy Ship, Camp Bisco and of a variety of other festivals to perform, and to share his creativity, versatility, & positive energy. If Honeycomb is at the event, expect to see him buzzing around, finding his way onto stages and into impromptu jams that become highlights for staff, musicians & unsuspecting patrons alike. McWavy At the age of 6 in a rural mountain home nestled in the deep woods of Vermont, McWavy (Sarah McAndrew) began in depth preparation to become a professional classical pianist. Along the way, a similarly deep appreciation for jazz and soul music lead to the desire to learn the alto,tenor, and baritone saxophone. Her inspiration to compose what she calls “Future-Jazz” started to grow from the world around her and the broad spectrum of music she listened to in her free time. Her sound is attributed to a culmination of influences from jazz to hiphop, soul music to classic rock and beyond creating a colorful sound unique to the vibrations within her heart. With a combination of keyboards, saxophone, and eclectic instrumentation, McWavy’s live performance enchants audiences with impressive on the go improvisation and raw emotional power through colorful layers of instrumentation and live vocals. You can expect her vivid imagination to curate an unparalleled adventure of auditory stimulation for her listeners in every performance.
