Sunday Session with Jarni Blair

Inspired by his father’s record collection and a mixture of modern artists, Jarni’s writing style is heavily influenced by The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jeff Beck, John Mayer, Ed Sheeran and many others. He has been playing live paid gigs since he was fifteen, performing in bands, duos, and also as a solo performer which is his mainstay currently.
He also plays a diverse range of music to satisfy everyone in the room encompassing rock, pop, blues, funk, reggae, soul, RnB, jazz, and singer-songwriter to name a few.
Jarni has also played with some bigwigs in the industry including Jason Kerrison, the Jordan Luck Band, and recently recorded with Kings, gaining the attention of one of NZ’s biggest acts, Drax Project. He also plays in “Summer Thieves” who are a well-established act playing big shows and festivals.
Despite the covid outbreak from 2020 onwards, Jarni has managed to stay productive and active with his music, having just finished a national tour with “Summer Thieves” in July and early August 2020. “Summer Thieves” also opened up for L.A.B. in their 2021/22 tour.
Jarni also writes his own solo music under his name and has had local success with that too. Listen and experience Jarni taking you on a journey into his mind and soul.
