About Me


Heather Corcoran of WilmingtonNC- music.com calls Jake's songwriting inspirational music to please any listener. He is excited to release Reaching Out, his new EP project of acoustic pop/rock tunes written in the past year. A Master of Arts in Teaching grad student and avid singer/songwriter, Jake's performing exploded at the end of high school when he began to play several live shows throughout North Carolina. The new EP reflects his experiences of college life and welcomes a heightened level of crisp, honest songwriting.Jake travels throughout the region several times a year playing shows and loves to connect with friends and strangers alike through his music. Often present in the local music circuit of Wilmington, he plays at coffee shops and bars, on campus events, as well as local and regional festivals. Jake also embraces a spiritual side by working as a youth & college worship leader for camps and retreats throughout the year.
