Early life

Saha was born on November 1, 1991, in Bangladesh. The following year, his family moved to the United States, and he studied at Herricks High School on Long Island.[6] He is a class of 2013 graduate of New York University's Gallatin School of Individualized Study, where he struggled to graduate because he was too focused on his music.[7]

Career

In 2011, Saha started producing electronic music under the moniker No Pets Allowed. Within a few years, his mashups and bootleg remixes began to generate attention, quickly rising within the internet music community.

In February 2014, Saha decided to part ways with the project and begin what is now known as Jai Wolf. Within the first few months, the project began to land a string of official remix opportunities for established artists including Melanie Martinez, Dirty South, Alesso and Odesza – each remix landing the No. 1 spot on Hype Machine. In late 2014, Skrillex turned Jai Wolf's bootleg remix of "Ease My Mind" into an official remix.[8]

In 2015, Jai Wolf released his debut single "Indian Summer" through ODESZA's label, Foreign Family Collective.[9] "Indian Summer" reached number 31 on Billboard's Hot Dance/Electronic song's chart. The track also earned a spot on the Triple J 2015 Hottest 100 in Australia.

In May 2016, Jai Wolf released his follow up single, "Drive", through Foreign Family Collective.[10]

On November 18, 2016, Jai Wolf released his debut EP, Kindred Spirits, through Mom + Pop music.[11]

In April 2017, Jai Wolf released his single, "Starlight" which featured Mr Gabriel, followed by a performance at the 2017 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.[12]

On August 10, 2018, "Lost" featuring Chelsea Jade was released on Mom + Pop.[13]

On January 14, 2019, Jai Wolf announced his debut album, The Cure to Loneliness, being released on April 5, 2019. Two singles from the album were released the same day, "Lose My Mind" featuring Mr Gabriel and "Telepathy".[14]

On June 8, 2022, Jai Wolf became the first Bangladeshi artist ever to sell out a concert at Red Rocks Amphitheatre, in Colorado, with the collaborative one-off concert "Infinite Light" with San Holo, one week after the release of their collaboration "We Will Meet Again", released via Mom + Pop Music.[15][16]

In March 2023, Jai Wolf released "Want It All" featuring Evalyn, his first single in three years, on Mom + Pop. The song was released along with a music video directed by Andrew Donoho.[17]
