Laydy Jams
Laydy Jams is a duo of 2 women of colour, based in Vancouver, unceded Coast Salish territories. Featuring Missy D as femcee and Sejal on violin and vocals, their music is a mix of hip-hop, vocal harmonies, violin, and a lil 90’s throwback to bring you home, hope, and love for the revolution. They use their music to empower youth and challenge the themes often seen in popular music and society. Laydy Jams’ music and the message are impacted by their diverse cultural backgrounds, with influences hailing from around the world. They write their life experiences into music, knowing that they provide a kind of comfort, familiarity, and radical joy for other people of colour and marginalized communities. They bring the sound of their lives to audiences through the roots of R&B, hip-hop, soul, classical, jazz, and funk. Take a listen. Welcome to the family.
