ABOUT JAYLER
JAYLER are an electrifying UK rock band fusing the spirit of the golden age of rock with a bold, raw modern edge. Delivering swaggering riffs, soulful vocals and unstoppable live energy, they’ve quickly built a reputation as a true force in the live arena. There’s a DNA and nod to classic British bands such as Led Zeppelin and Queen in the mix, but the band’s identity is rooted firmly in the present — loud, emotional and built to connect instantly.
Frontman James Bartholomew leads the charge on vocals and guitar alongside Tyler Arrowsmith (guitar), Ricky Hodgkiss (bass/keys) and Ed Evans (drums). Together, they balance groove and immediacy with a youthful edge, with defiance sitting at the core of their songwriting. JAYLER write for a generation that feels restless and unheard, fusing vintage tones with contemporary grit to create songs that land with physical impact and emotional weight.
That ethos comes fully into focus on their debut album Voices Unheard (2026). From the dust-kicking stomp of ‘Down Below’ to the emotional weight running through the record, the album captures a band cutting through the noise with something real — raw energy, instinct and connection, delivered without compromise.
