Биография

Jacob McCoy Burton is an Americana singer-songwriter born and raised in Amarillo, TX. The 27-year-old Texan released his debut EP, Hold the Line, back in 2015 with producer Daniel Mendez (Noah Gundersen, Dashboard Confessional). This emotive and meticulously crafted body of songs exudes a certain wise and weathered quality, far beyond Burton's years, and at moments is even sage-like in its lyrical message. Jacob's observations seem much like those of an older soul, and one might be fooled by his seasoned, polished vocal delivery. At times it invokes the fiery angst of Marcus Mumford, like on the longing "My Everything." At others it evokes the gentleness of Ryan Adams, like on the sleepy ballad "Jenny’s Song," which he wrote several years ago for his sister's wedding. Currently residing in Tulsa, OK with his wife, Langley, Jacob is working towards returning to the studio in the Spring to record his sophomore album, Questions.
