Info
Recognised by audiences, critics, and fellow musicians alike as one of the most gifted young artists of modern times, 29-year-old Jacob Collier already has a seemingly endless list of achievements including five Grammy wins along with 11 Grammy nominations including “Album of the Year” in 2021.
As a result, his roster of collaborators is astoundingly varied and vibrant. Jacob’s voice has been featured on recent songs from the likes of Coldplay, SZA, Stormzy, and Kehlani. In his own projects, Collier has worked with an unpredictable cast of artistic powerhouses, from Malian singer Oumou Sangaré to John Mayer, T-Pain, Ty Dolla $ign, Daniel Caesar, and Tori Kelly (to name a few).
Exploding onto the global stage with the viral success of his multi-frame, multi-instrumental YouTube covers, Collier caught the attention of Quincy Jones and under his mentorship released his debut album, In My Room, in 2016, which was recorded, produced, and played entirely by Collier.
Djesse (his most recent 4-volume album project) has been a natural expansion from the one-man process of 'In My Room' to including collaborators from all over the world and musical themes that encompass everything from orchestral composition to folk songwriting, R&B, rap and pop.
Alongside the upcoming release of Djesse Vol 4 on February 29th - his most collaborator filled release to date - he has plans for future projects in film scoring, teaching, musical theatre, and more.
