The Jigsaw Jam are a recently formed 5 piece currently gigging the acoustic circuit in Ireland. The band consists of Shane Davis (guitars,vocal), Gráinne Noone (fiddle), Caroline O' Sullivan (keyboards),Brenda Weir (vocals) and Aidan Smyth ( bass and porchboard). The full band came together early 2011 when Shane, who has been gigging solo for about 2-3 years, asked Gráinne to join the setup. From there Gráinne introduced Brenda and Caroline into the group bringing a distinctive folky vibe to the songs. Aidan who produced their Debut EP, joined the band following the release of the EP to complete the live line-up.
The band have recently completed a very successful EP tour with sell out gigs in Whelans, Monroes of Galway, a festival slot warming the stage for Aslan and the EP also spent a week at No. 1 in the iTunes singer songwriter charts.
The Jigsaw Jam’s sound fuses the singer songwriter genre with traditional folk, delivering an exciting sound that is both original and compelling. Some comparisions have been made to Mumford and Sons and also The Beautiful South.
