Evelyn Renee On February 6, 2025, Bryce Vine took on Denver, Colorado putting on a spectacular show at Ogden Theatre. With JayO warming up the crowd, the night is nothing short of amazing.
JayO
Born in Tottenham, North London, JayO became interested in music early, influenced by church sounds, trips to Nigeria, and his sister’s iPod filled with Kanye West, J. Cole, and Kendrick Lamar. As a teenager, he recorded songs with his best friend, producer RZ, in a shed-turned-studio. After studying marketing briefly and experimenting on SoundCloud, he found his signature sound: smooth R&B vocals over Afrobeats-inspired beats. Following the success of “XO” and “22,” he signed with 0207 Def Jam, released “Back” and “Often,” and performed at All Points East, curated by Stormzy.

Bryce Vine
Bryce Vine is a rapper and singer who seamlessly blends pop, rap, and alternative rock influences, delivering witty, thoughtful lyrics and catchy hooks. His rhyming style is both relaxed and quick-witted, filled with dry humor and casual observations on relationships, as heard in his 2018 breakthrough hit “Drew Barrymore.” Similarly, he reflects on the world around him in tracks like 2014’s “Sour Patch Kids,” his first online success. Furthermore, his music often incorporates hip-hop conventions with idiosyncratic melodies and prominent guitar arrangements. After enjoying significant success as an independent artist, he eventually signed with a major label to release his debut full-length Carnival in 2019. Subsequently, he maintained a steady stream of singles, exploring various sounds and emotions. Notably, the boastful rap of “Nobody,” the cocky breakup anthem “y can’t we b friends,” and the darkly witty socio-political pop track “American Dream” all arrived within six months in 2022.
