Jayson Bradshaw

Singer/Songwriter

The Ottawa Valley's very own singer/songwriter Jayson Bradshaw has been captivating audiences with his brilliant song writing and powerful voice for over 40 years.  His set list includes original material sprinkled with some great cover songs from Jimi Hendrix, James Taylor, Van Morrison, Blue Rodeo, Tom Petty, Led Zeppelin and more. The product of a couple of fun loving hippies with alternative ideas, Jayson was raised in rural Ontario with an acoustic guitar in his hands. His humble beginnings as a busker on the streets of Toronto, Ottawa, Banff, Mexico, Belize and Guatemala  - this man is not afraid of a stage or a sidewalk.  He is calm, cool and  collected and radiates confidence with his unique guitar strumming. Jayson isn't your run of the mill solo artist.  He will have the place up dancing with his original music alone.

"Grace Moon  

Beautiful song"   BEST PART OF ME 

  

"Nathalie Frappier 

Wow hearing you for the first time and that song/video really gave me chills. Very well done and I'm sorry if it didn't worked out it seek like you really loved her. A lot of us end up being fooled and I think it's because we have just a too big of a heart and we can see pass the flaws. Not sure of you're still in the roads but if so enjoy it to the max and keep writing"   BEST PART OF ME  

  

"Nathalie Frappier  

Wow listening to you really made me want to write back again even if I can't play no more. Writing about the real life and feelings and be true to ourself, not like that new fake whole world. Thanks"   BACK IN THOSE DAYS 

 

"Pam Borutski 

I flew from Kelowna BC to Wilno ON to see Jayson perform live for the first time in 30 years.  His shows are as energetic as they always were, his original lyrics and  music told stories that I could relate to, and his guitar playing is unreal!  Even my dad kept commenting on his guitar strumming technique"
