Just A Gent

Overview

Another overachieving youngster to add to the Hall of Stop Making Us Feel Past It. Cranking a bigger beat than most people who can get into bars, 17-year-old Jacob Grant calls himself Just A Gent and packs a punch on the ol' d-floor. EDM's answer to the Lordes and Baros doing their underage thing aroundaboutown (you know, finishing Year 11 and working in the local toy store), this youngster from Newcastle recently signed to big deal agency WME to many a bubbling "who dat?" reaction.

Already counting a bunch of nationally-applauded remixes and Hype Machine-charting edits in his repertoire (one of which Ultra Music Festival cranked in their promo video), JAG dropped a hugely-anticipated remix for The Aston Shuffle in June. Dropping into Sydney's World Bar in the midst of his national debut headlining tour, JAG is textbook one-to-watch material. Avicii better hold on to that little dog of his, this Novocastrian is on track for limelight (read: Oliver the Fox) stealing.
