Although he is only twenty-nine, guitar player and singer Will Jacobs has a long career behind him. Gone is the time when, as a teenager, Jacobs went to Chicago clubs to back some of the great names playing there. In 2009 he competed at the International Blues Challenge and, since that particular moment, his prestige has not stopped to grow as, not in vain, he also finished his studies at Berklee College Of Music and was asked to play with C.J. Chenier in a good number of tours. In 2016 he travelled for the first time to Europe and, according to his own words, one of the most memorable shows he remembers was the one he performed at the oldest bullfighting arena in the world in Béjar, Spain.

Jacobs has recently broadened his approach to music, something you will appreciate if you listen to this album, he has just published for German label Ruf Records, where he shows a colorful palette of styles that move between rock, funk, soul and experimental blues.

Will Jacobs appears as a skilled guitar player, able to surprise listeners with his fingering, as well as an experienced interesting singer, thanks to the vocal range he develops with taste and reliability along the ten songs that give shape to the recording. He is joined by Stef Rosen on guitar, Matthias Falkenau on organ, Thomas “Tomek” Germann on bass and Brian Sauls on drums.
