Jaysen Gold at Puckett’s Boat House Saturday

Jaysen Gold has known he wanted to be a country music singer/songwriter since he saw Randy Owen lead Alabama in “If I Had You” on a special Myrtle Beach Edition of Nashville at the age of 3. He learned how to maneuver a microphone before he learned how to maneuver a spoon and he’s been singing and performing his whole life.

Jaysen spent four years in country radio as a DJ at Big Froggy 101 in State College, PA, where he got tired of spinning other people’s songs. Thankfully, in 2011, he felt like God was telling him it was finally time to move from Happy Valley to Music City to chase the dream planted in his heart.

Now a resident of the Nashville area, Jaysen is chasing his dream.

He’s had the opportunity to write with Judy Rodman (“One Way Ticket”), and Debbie Moore (“Wish You Were Here”), who taught him key aspects of songwriting and the music business in general.

This spring, Jaysen released “About Time,” an EP featuring 5 songs cowritten by Jaysen and some very talented songwriters. For more info on the EP and show dates, visit facebook.com/jaysengoldmusic, or listen to some new music at reverbnation.com/jaysengold.

Jaysen plays at 7:30pm Saturday, January 28th, no cover charge.

Puckett’s Boat House is located at 94 E Main Street, Franklin, TN 37064.
