About Me

WELCOME

Welcome to Jake Morley's myspace page.
A rare and unusual talent, Jake Morley has a musical style to drop your jaw, tapping and slapping an acoustic guitar on his lap as if playing the guitar, piano and drums combined... whilst singing. Not just an unbelieveable guitarist, Jake's true talent lies in singing songs of beautiful, honest intensity. Have a look at some videos to find out more.

PEOPLE SAY

"On the verge of making it"
The Times
"Blimey! Great real life lyrics and superb virtuoso playing. That's extraordinary! Last December Jake decided to flip his acoustic over onto his lap and started tapping and slapping it as if he was playing guitar, piano and drums at the same time. 'This City' was the first composition in that style. It's also created a sensation on YouTube, so I would suggest you go and have a quick search for "Jake Morley" to see him in action."
Tom Robinson, BBC 6 Radio
"Mesmerising! Jake Morley is a unique talent.... one to keep an eye on!"
