Influenced by the rhythmic pop of John Mayer, the vocal stylings of Jeff Buckley and the storytelling of Dave Mathews, 23 year-old Jason Ayres is a West Australian based singer-songwriter who delivers a unique brand of acoustic pop tunes.
As a solo artist, Jason has built a passionate fan base, from young teenage listeners to baby boomers, all finding a connection in his music.
After touring the major cities of Australia and South Africa, it was evident that the lack of media attention had actually been a benefit to this aspiring artist, allowing him to fly under the radar and enabling people to discover him in an organic way, forming a bond between performer and listener that is extremely rare in this fickle era.
Having performed alongside artists like “James Cruikshank” (The Cruel Sea), “Jez”, Perth favourites “Toby & Code Red”, and having supported one of South Africa’s top bands “Lonehill Estate” during one of his South African tours, Jason has developed his own style and grace on stage, always being faithful to the songs, himself and his listeners.
With no banging drums or screaming electric guitars, his debut recording “The Acoustic Sessions” sees Jason Ayres stripped back, and performing at his most intimate. Just an acoustic guitar, his voice, and quality songs.
“The Acoustic Sessions” is out now! ! !
“Ayres is an artist whose voice and talent will take him far in this overly remixed industry. An artist with so much more to offer. . .”
The Daily Vault (U.S.A.)
“a wonderful debut. . .”
Evolution of Media (U.S.A.)
"... a charismatic and sincere performer who delivers quality songs."
Drum Media (Australia)
"His vocal stylings soar and the hooks are firmly in place."

Hey Jason. Thanks for responding to our current Friends drive and adding Bands@Manjimup. We are doing this because we have a few really exciting events coming up like our recent concert, on Friday 20th, featuring Elora Danan (photo below) on their debut album tour, Manji prog rock band Ashoka and Perth ambient rockers Laced Affair. It was a high energy show with fantastic sound, and those who came got to meet the bands for more than an hour afterwards. The pictures are now up as a slideshow. Check them out at the top of our profile. Next, we'll be hosting the biggest regional event in this year's WAMi Festival calendar, on 22nd May. The support acts: Abbe May, Sneaky Weasel Gang, Desert Radio and Ashoka. The headline is now definitely CALERWAY. Following day Abbe (songwriting) , Drew Goddart (guitar) from Karnivool, Roy Martinez (bass) and Nick Johnson (drum tuning, cymbal selection and kit set-up) from Eskimo Joe will feature as lecturers in our B@M Youth Muso Workshops. The June gig will feature an even bigger headline band, probably supported by local heroes Ashoka and Electrostatik. We'll keep you updated with bulletins and you may want to tap into the bands listed on our Top 40. You'll always find the performers at our next gig right up the top. At the other end you'll find bands that have recently played, followed by acts, who want to play at B@M. Send us a comment if you like them and they maybe get the go. Lastly: PLEASE VOTE AGAINST DAYLIGHT SAVING! It prevents proper FX lighting at outdoors concerts before 9pm in summer. Especially for support bands. It’s gotta go!!! Peace, The Terminator
