Ragsy shot to fame when he appeared on the Voice and has been busy touring the pubs and clubs of Wales ever since.  A very popular Welsh singer songwriter who performs a mixture of his own songs and arrangements of popular hits from the 60’s right up to the present time. https://youtu.be/evRHk0KkjEE            

We have invited Sunjay back again to Aberjazz this year by popular demand.  He played in TS Skirmisher last year but this time will be playing in Ffwrn.  With a relaxed and confident manner, vocal style and mastery of his instrument he walks onto a stage and addresses the audience as though he is sitting down to play music with a group of close friends; a completely natural approach for a young man who picked up the guitar when he was just 4 years old and hasn’t put it down since.  Sunjay’s style has that natural drift between folk and blues and both camps have recognised his obvious flair.

TangoJazzDrawing from a rich, musical and cultural background it is hardly surprising that Sunjay has quickly become recognised as one of the UK’s rising stars. His performances have been described as “mature & confident”, while his guitar playing has been hailed as “superb, brilliant, experienced, intricate & faultless”.Sunjay clocked over a hundred tour dates in 2013 supporting the likes of Steeleye Span, Martin Simpson, Passenger, and Terry Reid. With three albums already to his name, (‘Seems So Real’ 2011, ‘One Night Only’ 2013 and 'Sunjay' 2014) Sunjay has just recorded his fourth release (“Black & Blues” released 30th November 2015).

"Already creating a stir with talents way beyond his years. A really soothing, natural sound and most definitely destined for bigger things." - Maverick Magazine
“For such a young performer, Sunjay shows real confidence, maturity and ease on
stage that it seems like he has been doing nothing else all of his life.” – Folk All Magazine
"A great voice."- Blues Matters Magazine

This is the third time the Argentinean Tango Jazz Quartet have appeared at Aberjazz. The first time they packed out Peppers, and 2 years ago they were in Theatr Gwuan so this year they will square the circle by playing in Ffwrn.  Based in Argentina but constantly touring and playing concerts  the amazing “Tango Jazz Quartet" is formed by Alejandro Beelmann on drums, Federico Hilal on bass,Gustavo Corrado on piano, Gustavo Firmenich on tenor saxophone and clarinet who mix the melodic and rhythmic patterns of Tango with the harmonies and improvisation of Jazz.
