Biography
Story
Jacob Tell is a singer-songwriter from Los Angeles, California. He released his debut studio album, "Hard To Be Human," in January 2026. This album blends elements of blues-infused rock, indie rock, and Americana. Critics have likened Jacob's songwriting to that of James Taylor and Paul Simon, praising producer Don Douglass for creating a "cinematic," "soulful," and "dangerously precise" sound.
Currently, Jacob and Don are working on a new album titled "Lateral," set for release in early winter 2027. This upcoming album is intended to be more confessional and intimate in scope compared to the socio-political themes of "Hard To Be Human." Jacob Tell's music is also featured on KracRadio, where tracks like "Cracks Appearing All Around" and "So Much Of The Time" can be heard.
