Musical devotion can go two ways, it’s either a hobby, or it’s your life. For Anirban Jee, his musical awakening spawned at the vibrant age of 12, when he received his first electronic keyboard. Heavily influenced by a diverse range of musical genres through the 80’s and 90’s, Anirban found himself heavily inspired by pop icons such as Elton John, Richard Marx, Maxwell, Sting, Carol King and many more. During his teen years, AJ found himself dabbling in numerous tuition courses and on the back of many years studying Piano/Keyboard through school and university, Anirban had honed his musical growth to original songwriting and musical compositions.

With a unique and diverse musical approach, Anirban’s compositions have managed to reach number one position at finals of the Australian Songwriters Contest, secure numerous commercial and community radio plays across Australia and even peg a Top 10 spot on Triple-J’s Unearthed Dance Charts where his track remained at the top 10 position for over 3 weeks!

In his early years of songwriting, Anirban managed to catch the attention of Australian music industry heavy weight producer and ‘song doctor’ Matt O’Connor (Thirsty Merc, The Beautiful Girls) from the A&R Department, Sydney. Originally discovered from a rough demo, Matt O’Connor took Anirban under his wing to further develop and hone his craft.

His 2014 debut commercial single “AEIOU” featuring Blue (Celeste Newman) released under the banner of The A&R Department secured air play on FM radio stations across 5 states and even pegged a Top 10 ranking in multiple categories at the 2014 Australian Songwriting awards.
