Jay Rose is an independent singer-songwriter from Austin, Texas
“I’ll try not to hurt you, but if I’m being honest… I don’t know what I’m doing. I’m just being human.”
His songs feel like late-night conversations with someone you just met but weirdly trust. Talking a little too close, oversharing a bit too much, throwing in a few white lies to save face, and cracking a joke when things get too real.
After spending more than 20 years writing songs—often quietly and without expectation—Jay finally stepped into the studio to record his debut album, Still My First Try.
This album is an honest take on what it means to be human: messy, imperfect, and still showing up anyway. It’s sincere when it needs to be and doesn’t take itself too seriously when it doesn’t.
We were all thrown into this life with no instruction manual, wondering who we are, where we came from, and why we’re here. Just figuring it out on the fly, together.
Still My First Try captures that beautifully.
