Jay Danley has been a professional musician for over thirty years and has played a wide variety of music. His progressive rock collaboration with Derek Wylie, "Connections", was called "...a varied and mature album of thoughtful and contemplative music that connects with you on a cerebral level."(M. Hutchinson, ProgRadar).
Danley's latest release is called "Great Googly Moogly! Music Inspired By Frank Zappa". It is available on all streaming platforms.

Sure! Can you tell me how to post an image please? Here is the expanded bio:
"Canadian recording artist Jay Danley is a world-class session musician who contributed instrumentally
to multiple Juno award-nominated records (Hilario Duran) and is the featured guitarist on the Juno
award-winning (Julian Fauth), blues album of the year release.
He has performed with a multitude of legendary musicians from around the world. His coveted tenure
with British–Canadian jazz vibraphonist, percussionist, and composer Peter Appleyard is a memorable
chapter is in his storied career, along with performances with primary members of Buena Vista Social
Club and Salsa star Oscar D'León, to name a few.
Danley is recognized as one of Canada’s leading Jazz and Latin multi-instrumentalist
musicians/composers, who as band leader delivered many memorable performances, at the highly
acclaimed “Beaches International Jazz Festival,” performed at Toronto’s legendary Massey Hall and
graced the stage at the “Barbados Jazz Festival.”
Known as the creator of his own compelling style of “Ethiojazz,” Jay was selected by the “Ontario Arts
Council,” in a rigorous juried competition, to receive funds to create his current album release titled
"Ethiojazz Volume 1." The album contains memorable melodies, themes and incredible performances,
showcasing tracks that flow from high energy dance music to sweet ballads. A definitive record that
captures the true essence of Ethiojazz.
His latest album is“Great Googly Moogly! Music Inspired By Frank Zappa”
His unique stylings are warming the hearts of Jazz fans at numerus concert performances on the Jazz
circuit, with some of the most sough-after session players in the region. The group leaves audiences in
awe of the Danley trademark fusion of genres, that are a melting pot of five tone scaling Ethiopian
Jazz, ‘70’s Soul, World-Jazz Fusion, Afro-Funk and Afro-Cuban music.
The Jay Danley Band have performed at many festivals that include; Hamilton World Music Festival,
Lulaworld Fest and Small World Music Society festival. Jay is looking at performing at select music
industry conferences across North America, garnering further festival bookings, and organizing a
national tour across Canada, in the near future.
In 2020 Danley moved to the remote village of Kaslo, B.C., where he continues to write, record and
produce his music.
He has assembled a team of respected industry professionals, that will contribute to an increased level
of success, that this ground-breaking recording artist deserves …"
