Jay Scott Berry

Universally recognized as one of the finest magicians of the late 20th century, Jay Scott Berry expanded his reach beyond magic and also made a name for himself as both a lecturer and a musician. Much like his lectures, his music is very informed by his magic performances, derived as it is from the new age style. Berry employs many of the more popular new age motifs as well as its sound. His albums revolve around particular themes and concepts, most of which involve some sort of mystic element. While his magic is surely his main draw, Berry's ambient, synthesizer-heavy music serves as a welcome brand extension and furthered his iconic status in the magic community.



Beginning at the age of five, Berry participated in local plays and musicals, devoting much of his early age to the theater. Having been born in 1960, he became the youngest magician ever to appear at Hollywood's well-known magician showcase Magic Castle in the '70s. By the '80s, he rose to the top of the industry and began preforming stage shows around the world and was featured on dozens of television progams as well.
