Jacob Elliot

I take the sounds from my head and put them into a digital format that I freely disseminate over the internet for your enjoyment.
Occasionally, I haul instruments and other people onto a stage and we try to recreate these sounds--w/varying degrees of success.
I have been fortunate to perform w/people like Alejandro Escovedo, Michelle Shocked, Chris Funk, and others. Perhaps you.
If you like what you hear, please spread the word. Secrets, really, don't make friends.



Here is what h-monthly.com had to say.



"Wow. Amazing, tender, and delicate love dittys. Tragic sadness with a shimmering speck of a hope, not unlike the ending of The Neverending Story. It's the perfect music for summoning up forgotten tears or for walking away from the dark ending of a relationship knowing that the sun will shine again one day soon. Somehow faintly reminiscent of Elliott Smith but not, it moves from piano led whiskey meditations to head bopping rock-outs while Jacob Elliot's velvet razor voice cuts deep into your soul with a strange softness. Some of the most beautiful lyrics, melodies and music I've heard put together in quite some time. How come nobody knows about this guy? Check out any of the songs, they're all damn good."
