Jake Scott
appeals to multiple senses with his nuanced, yet cinematic take on alternative pop. His lyrics are so honest and unfiltered you can practically see each story unfold right in front of you. Breezy melodies and lush guitars might conjure a memory you never want to end, while airy beat-craft pulls you back down to earth for a moment of introspection. Born and raised in Fayetteville, AR and based in Los Angeles, CA, the platinum-certified singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist consistently connects with audiences. Obsessed with music as a kid, he broke through the old-fashioned way—by grinding it out. Beginning in 2018, he chose to share one single per month independently until the end of 2020. Attracting a diehard fanbase, he caught the attention of Elektra Records and inked a deal with the label. Thus far, he has impressively tallied just shy of 1 billion total streams. He notably joined forces with Russell Dickerson for “She Likes It,” gathering nearly 300 million streams, picking up a 2x platinum certification from the RIAA, and landing a nomination for “Collaborative Video of the Year” at the CMT Awards. Meanwhile, he delivered unforgettable performances on TODAY, The Kelly Clarkson, and Good Morning America, to name a few. Beyond praise from American Songwriter, Billboard, PEOPLE MAGAZINE named him among its “Emerging Artists” in 2022. As a songwriter, his catalog has also expanded with cuts for Jason Mraz, Aloe Blacc, and Bailey Zimmerman. Packing houses coast-to-coast, he sold out every date of his first headline tour. In 2023, Jake brings a whole lot of heart back to pop music on his debut album, Lavender, and more to come.
