Full Biography

Taste & Jam are a comprehensive musical duo currently based in London. With an emphasis on recreating renowned classics of the yesteryears and today, their setlist features an eclectic range of music across all decades including Motown, Jazz, 60s Soul & R’n’b, 70s & 80s Rock & Alternative right up until music of today.

All songs are performed with guitar and vocals creating a distinctive and uniquely genuine quality to their sound and their ability to match dynamic, engaging guitar playing with powerful, absorbing vocals makes them the perfect accompaniment to any kind of event.

Yvonne pursued her music education at the renowned British and Irish Institute of Modern Music in London, UK. Graduating in 2016, she released her debut single entitled Wolf Cry in the same year. Following from this, her second single Roving was released in April 2017 and received recognition from renowned music publications including Clash Magazine and the Line of Best Fit. She was recently announced as a recipient of PRS for music’s prestigious Women Make Music award, receiving funding for her debut E.P. which will be released in 2018. She has performed at various venues in London including The Troubadour, famous for being the home of Bob Dylan’s first performance in London, the world famous Ronnie Scotts Jazz Club and has headlined The Finsbury, a performance venue in London.

Ovidijus has been active in the industry for about 7 years, being a part of blues, pop, rock bands and even gypsy jazz trios playing various events from private evenings to festivals. Being completely self-taught, he graduated from BIMM (British and Irish Modern Music Institute) in London and acquired BMus 1st Class Honours in Performance. This opened doors for Ovidijus to perform at many renowned venues in London like the O2 Academy Islington, O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, Bush Hall, The Camden Assembly, famous for having hosted one of the early performances of Coldplay and The Half Moon Putney including many other. He has been actively involved in recording music for other artists next to having his own original band which released an EP in June 2017. Playing in variety of environments and being exposed to different genres and styles of music, he has acquired professional attitude to his craft and an extraordinary musical touch to provide a performance of the highest standard.

We Can Not Recommend Taste and Jam Duo enough!

5 stars - Taste and Jam Duo are Highly Recommended
booked Taste and Jam Duo for their Wedding

“The communication was seamless and Yvonne took time to suggest some great ideas for the acoustic piece that they played during the signing of our register. It was fantastic. They then played 2 sets with their own PA system during our drinks reception, outside in a sunny courtyard, and created the most incredible atmosphere. So many people complimented them and there was a huge round of applause when they left! Thank you Yvonne and Ovidijus for playing such an important part in our wedding day!”
