J*DaVeY are Jack Davey and Brook D'Leau. They are products of the growing music video age that finally allowed consumers to visualize what they were listening to.
Inspired by new wave (Talking Heads, The Police), jazz fusion, funk, rock and hip-hop, their sound relates to the musical past, present and mostly future: progressive soul infused with electronics. While their sound was solely Hip-Hop in the beginning, Jack began to incorporate soul singing into their songs. Brook added touches of synth keyboards in place of the classic rhodes sound heard in the Neo-Soul songs that were so popular at the time.
In the present, the duo is being heralded as a cross between Erykah Badu, Prince, and Radiohead with traces of Funk and some future sound that has yet to be named.
