Three voices found each other in South Jersey in 1999 and never stopped harmonizing. Seven musicians locked in for nearly a decade. One band that has outlasted everything the industry could throw at it.

​

Jamie Evans, Jake Evans, and Samoeun Cheng grew up in Williamstown, New Jersey. Two brothers who couldn't stop harmonizing once they figured out they could. And a third voice who arrived by a different road entirely — born in a refugee camp in Thailand after his family fled Cambodia, raised in South Jersey on American hip hop, and drawn into music the same way the other two were. Inevitably. Completely.

​

That foundation — three voices, one sound, a faith that runs through all of it not as a genre but as a bedrock — has held for over twenty-five years. Through lineup evolutions, industry shifts, and every obstacle the music business could manufacture, JUTAUN kept showing up.

​

The band has recorded with Leon Huff of Philadelphia International Records, toured internationally to South Africa and the Caribbean, appeared on BET, MTV, and PBS, placed on the Billboard AAA chart, and licensed music to Netflix, Fox Sports, and A&E. They've been R&B legend Freddie Jackson's touring band and opening act for nearly a decade — producing, writing, and playing on his last album. NPR Tiny Desk. Z100 New York. WXPN Philadelphia. Sofar Sounds. iHeart Radio.

​

They've also sold over 100,000 CDs directly to the people who showed up.

​

Joined by Stephen Honsberger, Carter Fox, Jordan Damiani, and Michael Walker, JUTAUN released The Art of Breaking Through Shadows in January 2025 — thirteen tracks produced, mixed, and mastered entirely by Jamie Evans. It is their most fully realized work.
