JP Saxe: Folk Musician in New York

About JP Saxe

JP Saxe is a Canadian singer-songwriter whose breakout arrived with the 2019 single “If the World Was Ending,” a charting duet that put his plainspoken writing in wide rotation. A grandson of cellist János Starker, he brings a musician’s attention to phrasing and dynamics, often folding country inflections into pop structures. In New York, he appears at Barclays Center and nearby Prudential Center as support on Megan Moroney: The Cloud 9 Tour, alongside Solon Holt. His performances tend to favor emotional specificity over spectacle.
