Jay Knight

**Jay Knight** is a delightfully quirky New Zealand-based indie musician known for his offbeat humor, DIY charm, and love of all things absurd. Blending lo-fi pop, jangly guitars, and lyrical wit, his tracks—like the cheeky "Hourly Rate Is Pathetic" or the horse-racing ode "Pharlap"—often celebrate Kiwi culture with a wink. A low-key staple of the Flying Nun-adjacent scene, Knight’s music feels like a cozy inside joke shared over a crate of old records, whether he’s crafting a surreal Christmas anthem ("Kiwi Christmas") or paying tribute to a beloved pet ("Winnie The OG"). Keep an eye on this underrated gem—his tunes are as unpredictably fun as their titles suggest.
