Jesus Ayala Jr. Indie Rock, Garage Rock Chicago Garage/Indie-Rock/Post-Punk Revival | Chicago, IL Influences: The Killers, The Strokes, The Vaccines, Kings of Leon, Arctic Monkeys, Joy Division, Interpol, Self-Titled Debut EP Out Now! Demos are work in progress and written/arranged by me - please message if you'd like to collaborate. Jesus Ayala Jr., hailing from Chicago, armed with an American White Fender Stratocaster aims to relive the glory days of early-2000’s Garage Rock/Indie Rock/Post-Punk Revival era. His music is in the same vain as that from The Strokes, The Killers, The Vaccines, Weezer, and Arctic Monkeys. “I’m nostalgic for the nights that people went out to smoke cigarettes, drink cheap beer, and listen to rock bands. The scene changed on me when I was old enough to go out, so I hope we can recreate that” Ayala Jr. stated. Jesus Ayala Jr. is no stranger to indie-rock anthems, having performed with bands The Charters and The Fevertones. The Charters won the Hollywood Songwriting Contest for ‘It’s a Lonely Christmas’ and performed two sold-out shows at their height in Chicago. The Fevertones have also performed countless festivals and been described “as the love child of Cold War Kids and Led Zeppelin” by bloggers. Ayala Jr has also quietly released an acoustic solo project that sparked his interest in a solo career. “You can’t let songs collect dust while you wait for the right time or band, which is why I started releasing music on my own” he stated. Ayala Jr.’s self-titled debut EP, Self-Titled Debut EP, is an introduction to his guitar driven music. Catchy choruses, clever lyrics, melodic guitar riffs, and interesting narratives are ever more present in Ayala Jr.’s solo effort. Star-crossed lovers, ambiguous love triangles, and troubled high school principals are just some of the topics covered on this release.
