Thick drums, ambient synths and booming vocals go straight to your head and leave you in a world of style, soul and honesty. Gnarly samples and funky guitar riffs add flare to the already unique sound. Lyrics are coated with puns, metaphors and creativity.
JAKE WILL THREATEN EVERYTHING YOU THOUGHT POP MUSIC WAS.
Singer/Songwriter Jake Cheyne’s music box comes from numerous genres including Jazz, Folk, Alternative Rock, Pop, and R&B. He is a vibrant talent whose vocal gift belies his young 22 years. Lyrically, he is a storyteller who prides himself on drawing from experiences and those of others close to him to create intriguing works. Musically, he pulls out all the stops and is certainly the new artist to watch!
JAKE hears the world as an arrangement. Thoughts are chords, interaction is rhythm, laughter holds the tempo, and love writes the words. He is a storyteller - life filters into his body as music and he writes songs to understand it. JAKE believes that the depth of a song is far beyond what you hear, it's what you see.
"I'm young and aware, have fresh thoughts (and am unafraid to express them), and am willing to take risks that will lead to deeper insights about being an individual in today’s metered society. As an artist concerned with the whole of individuality, I tell a full and meaningful story through my music - entertaining and engaging. I am a musician driven by passion, not fashion as my music is rooted by truth. Simple - maybe, understandable - probably, honest - YES."
Sincerely,
. . J . .
WHAT THEY'RE SAYING . . .
“Jake is undeniably something else! Musically, he is a mix of something I miss about the ol’ days, and something I crave today. Jake very well may be the youngest man on this planet to shape music as drastically as he is about to!"
"I've never seen anyone that looks like Jake, acts like Jake, can sing like Jake, and definitely - can perform like Jake Cheyne!"
"Jake is a true performer! I can't imagine any place he belongs more than the stage. Jake's performance was like a an exhaustion clinic to my soul. I went in feeling depressed and tired and left feeling uplifted and revitalized. He is a true gem! In years to come you are going to be like elton who? or john legend who? all you will know is Jake Cheyne."
"Some say the eyes are the window to the soul . . . but Jake Cheyne is the true window into soul! He has more soul than foot locker. He is a great, uplifting voice for our generation - so refreshing in such a down time."
"Fresh sound, AMAZING vocals!"
"GET READY . . . IT'S ALL ABOUT JAKE!"
