The overall plan is for people to lose themselves in these worlds and become part of something bigger than just themselves. Engineering relatable experiences that can create community and share love.
Jake is currently script writing and composing for a more in-depth project with subject matter close to home.
This year, 2024, after the release of his short film ‘One Day or Day One?’, the title question of that film became a comment topic of conversation - and therefore, a podcast exploring people’s stories and experiences surrounding that topic was made - ‘The Day One Experience’.
The May of 2023, Jake hosted and performed a composer’s masterclass in Czechia to up and coming musicians and storytellers.
August 2022, Jake had his ‘day one’ moment and dived into filmmaking and composition of his own creation. Which lead on to three short film being completed in 2023.
In February 2020 he accompanied on guitar for a vocal trio and played for Sofar Sounds in West Hampstead, London.
In 2019, Jake graduated from the Institute Of Contemporary Music Performance (ICMP) in London, earning a BA in Creative Musicianship.
In the summer of the same year, Jake took his solo storytelling experience to Czechia and hosted a collection of small and intimate performances in a tour around Prague and surrounding areas.
Previously, Jake had been in several bands, most notably in 2017, where as part of trio 'Brown Sugar', he played the ‘Vicenza Jazz Festival’ in Italy, and the ‘Limoubluez Festival’ in France.
