<p>Jay Som represents the musical vision of San Francisco singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Melina Duterte. *Jay Som* is a moniker that Duterte randomly found via an online baby name generator meaning "Victory Moon". She reissues *Turn Into* this Fall, a collection of finished and unfinished songs written, recorded, and mixed between March 2014-October 2015. Originally uploaded to Bandcamp last year after Duterte had a few too many glasses of wine at Thanksgiving dinner, *Turn Into* is an exciting glimpse of what's to come for Jay Som on her debut album in 2017. Currently signed to Polyvinyl records.</p>

Following the release of Jay Som's critically acclaimed sophomore album, Anak Ko (2019), the band's creative force, Melina Duterte, is already back with 2 beautiful new songs. "A Thousand Words" and "Can't Sleep" both give listeners a crystal clear reminder as to what made Jay Som one of the most popular indie acts of the last few years. "'A Thousand Words' was made after a year of extensive touring plus a cancelled tour," explains Duterte. "I forced myself to make a sort of big and jovial song to bring me out of the funk I was in - I also wanted to remind myself that music can be fun!. Heavily inspired by Bruce Springsteen, Elliott Smith, Pavement and that song 'Alright' by Supergrass."
