Juniper Mays

Bio
Emerging from Rock'n'Roll roots and infusing folk, bluegrass, Irish influences and a touch of reggae and jazz, Juniper Mays is gaining recognition for consistently energizing, fun live shows, always peppered with moments of pure improvisation.

Focused around the original songs and singing of Robert McHugh, led by the guitar playing of Erik Smith and held down by the rhythm section of Kyle Hendrix on percussion and Dan Schmelzer on bass guitar, Juniper Mays was born by a spontaneous chemistry in early 2007. Formed by friends pursuing musical interests accross the spectrum, the guys coincidentally began performing together at bars, parties and festivals where instruments were close at hand. Playing many shows under different names and never knowing exactly what was going to happen, it was only a matter of time before other acts and venues requested Juniper Mays to perform.

Juniper Mays is evolving and growing, never complacent and always headed for the next song and show.
