Twenty-four year old British singer/songwriter Matthew Jay fell from a seventh-story window yesterday in England in an apparent suicide. “His act would appear to have been an impulsive gesture following a professionally difficult year and perhaps, a difficult day,” said a statement. Jay’s 2001 release, Draw (Capitol Records), earned the musician many comparisons to Nick Drake and Jay spent a good part of that year touring with the Doves, Dido, the Stereophonics, and Starsailor.
