Jayden Bowley

Jayden is a Christchurch-based guitarist with over 15 years of experience across original and cover projects. Equally at home in the studio, on a festival stage, or at sea, he brings versatility, polish, and a strong ear for what a song needs. His original work includes performing with Mim Jensen, Amber Carly Williams, Pretty Stooked, Kentucky Fried Children, The Hootz, Shayna King, and The Bone Shop. On the Christchurch covers circuit, he has played with Black & Gold, Corner Sounds, Eve Kelly & The Key Centres, Mirrors, Diamond Blue, and Roger Roger. After relocating to Melbourne in 2016, Jayden went on to complete three six-month contracts as a guitarist with Celebrity Cruises (2020, 2022, and 2023), performing for international audiences night after night, before returning to NZ. His style spans indie rock, pop, blues, funk, and all the classics, making him a reliable fit for everything from intimate gigs to big stages.
