Chosen as a VEVO DSCVR artist and frequent collaborator with artists such as 24kgldn to Dillon Francis, BabyJake has made an indelible mark on the modern music landscape since his debut in 2019 with "Cigarettes on Patios" (Certified Gold, 125M+ streams across DSPs). With acclaim from outlets such as Billboard, Wonderland, Lyrical Lemonade, Ones to Watch, and American Songwriter, in addition to 20+ Spotify placements (Feel Good Indie Rock, Dopamine, Varsity Bars) and 30+ Apple Music placements (Chilltronics, New in Pop, AltPop, Superbloom), BabyJake is on the rise, and hasn't let up.
Since that 2019 debut, BabyJake has been bringing the glamour of the 70’s to modern day, combining latest production knowledge with an undeniably retro feel that can bring your mom back to the pictures of her high school celebrity crushes she pulled pictures of out of her vinyl booklets. Creating a unique mix of influences to develop an entrancing individual sound, the Florida-born, LA-made, and Nashville-based singer-songwriter’s loudest influence is his own personality.
He set forth his softer side in 2020 with his debut EP, Don’t Give Me Problems, Give Me Wine. He followed that release with his debut album in 2021, The Sun Wakes Up Earlier Now, in addition to two compilations, First Stop and Second Base (SB Projects/Republic Records). Most recently, he shared his sophomore record, Aren't We Ever Gonna Be More Than Friends?, and he now returns with a much folkier release, his third LP entitled Rude, Crude, and Uncouth.
Unapologetically himself, and with a cohesive grasp on his sound’s inspirations, you’ll want to sit back and enjoy the show.
