Shai Jaschek is an Israeli born guitarist, composer, and music educator based in New York City.

After first picking up the guitar at 10 years old, Shai has since dedicated his life to music,
playing and performing constantly.

Before establishing himself in NYC, Shai completed his Bachelor’s in Arts from Israel’s top
jazz performance programs, such as “The Jazz Institute” at the “Rimon School of Music”,
and the “Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance”.
During this time, Shai sought the opportunity to seek mentorship from world renowned musicians, such as trumpeter Avishai Cohen, saxophonist Eli Degibri, and composer
Yoni Rechter.
As their mentee, Shai developed his unique voice as a composer and improviser.

During his Bachelor’s, he played in different musical groups, such as The Haifa Big Band, and
The Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra, and became an in-demand guitarist in the Israeli
music scene.
These experiences led Shai to start his own band, playing his original compositions,
preforming in clubs and festivals both in Israel and abroad.

Driven by his passion for jazz music, Shai relocated from Israel to NYC to pursue his graduate studies in music and to also be a part of the local jazz scene in the city.
In 2021, Shai was granted a Master’s in music from Queens College, an institution with internationally acclaimed musicians, such as Antonio Hart, Mike Moreno, David Berkman, and Michael Mossman.

After setting foot in NYC, Shai has been performing around the city both as a sideman in different bands and as a leader.
His debut album, First Fall, was released in October 2023 and features his original compositions.
