Currently, Maddie Jay is the touring bassist for both Remi Wolf and Lorde. Later this year, fans can expect a new full-length project from her that Bobbing is also working on. As proven by the release of “Marie”, their collaboration brings out the best in each other creatively.
ABOUT MADDIE JAY
Maddie Jay is fascinated by sonics. When she isn’t on the road playing bass for artists such as Lorde or Remi Wolf, she is in her cozy Los Angeles bedroom studio frankensteining together music from analogue synthesizers, cassette tape and drum machines. While Maddie loves supporting and collaborating with other artists, she finds her most fulfilling and creative moments come when she is alone, making something from nothing with an instrument in hand and a cat on her lap.
While her music feels warm, fuzzy, and distinctly California influenced, Maddie’s journey began in a tiny town in the northwestern corner of British Columbia, Canada. After coming to America to study bass guitar at Berklee College of Music in Boston, Maddie followed her friends to Los Angeles and started her career as a “hired gun” bass player. While touring the world, Maddie felt herself pulled to her laptop on her days off and in green rooms, and eventually released her first EP “Mood Swings” in 2020.
Maddie’s second EP CMYK was released in May of 2021 and was met with critical acclaim and support from press and DSPs. Earlier this year, she released “Gutterball” and will continue releasing new music leading into an album later this year.
ABOUT BOBBING
Hailing from the SF Bay Area, Bobbing is the psychedelic indietronica project of multi-instrumentalist and producer Robert Luisi Ross. Formerly the guitarist of math rock cult-favorites Feed Me Jack, Ross translated the band’s pathologically melodic sound into a more production-focused, genre-fluid vibe with his 2019 debut EP Thank You for Singing To Me, which was described by Fecking Bahamas as “a feast of intertwining math rock, surf rock, jazz, psychedelia and pop.” Ross then released 2020’s Mixtape, a stream of conscious sampler plate of musical vignettes which the Bay Bridged called “a stuttering, unhinged triumph. The 17-track, sitcom-length album weaves seamlessly between snippets of ideas with the precision of a paring knife.” Bobbing released a single in 2021 featuring Kiefer and has been dropping rough sketches on Bandcamp as he gears up towards his next string of releases.
