Jay Arner (2016)

Vancouver, BC

Mint Records’ shy savant of DIY pop-rock ditties, Jay Arner knows his way around an infectious synth line. Accordingly, Arner has earned a rep for both his solo output and his oozier duo Energy Slime. The latest track off his anticipated sophomore Jay II, “Crystal Ball,” is a testament to his love for bass fuzz, glam-y ‘80s sounds and analog electronics.
