"Steeped in Americana riffage of artists like John Mayer and Ray LaMontagne..." - Apple Music

Jacob Swann is a singer songwriter from Cape Town, South Africa. Deeply influenced by the rich musical history and aesthetic of the Southern United States, artists like John Mayer, CCR, Marcus King and Ray LaMontagne have formed the musical base from which all live performances and songs have grown. For the past five years, he's been playing in and around Cape Town, until 2020 brought a halt to live music. During this time, songs were born and recorded and now in 2021 we have a debut EP, “Brother”, to look forward to, containing the songs written during this time. Armed with his guitar, he is set to trigger the longing for something better in each of us.

“’Two Blue Eyes’ is an experience. Sometimes people cross our paths and it's impossible to forget the influence that they had on us in that moment. In this song I tried to capture the goodness in someone and how it can heal...” - Jacob Swann

“It was South Africa’s initial lockdown in 2020 that forced Capetonian singer-songwriter Jacob Swann into the studio to record his debut EP, after many years of performing in and around the Mother City. Swann’s subsequent EP is steeped in the Americana riffage of artists like John Mayer and Ray LaMontagne, while it’s bilingual nature (English and Afrikaans) gives it a distinct local twist. From uptempo folk guitar pickings à la Paul Simon (“Al Het Ek Niks”) to a Southern blues-driven tip of the hat to moving on (“New Day”), it’s the quieter, gentler moments on this EP (“Lief”) that set Swann apart from his contemporaries…” - Apple Music (July 2021)
