Hi. I'm Jay Norton - I'm 21, and I like to make sweet, sweet music :-)
I'm a part-time night-time reception worker, a member of a truly great
contemporary a capella choir by the name of Sense Of Sound, and
most importantly, a Pescatarian. I can't seem to shake off eating fish,
so I’m not a full-on Veggie - though I'm a firm supporter of respon-
sible fishing and taking care of our oceans. I come from Liverpool: a
place that one and all associate with The Beatles - a shadow I'm sure
a thousand singer/songwriters with a scouse accent would love to
shake off. I suppose no one will ever be able to fill those boots.
One can try.
I'm not like the singers that have honed their art since they can
remember. I was part of a church choir in primary school - ditched it
because it was badly uncool as soon as I, well, was cool (at twelve!),
and didn't sing for the best part of 5 years beyond writing a shit load
of songs in the very private privacy of me mum's backroom. Then,
I set myself free from the whip that was secondary school and went to
a college (at seventeen) in the middle of nowhere; Widnes, a place in
which no one knew me from the next Tom, Dick or Harry. It was there
that my love affair really began.
