	JANUARY – Jake joined fellow singer/songwriters David Sneddon & Chris Townsend on a mini tour dubbed The Myspace Lads Tour’ gigging in Oxford, Cambridge, Bristol & London releasing his ’Live Sessions Ep’ to coincide with the tour. The Ep reached the very respectable position of No.3 in the first week of it’s release at the beginning of January in the 7digital indiestore chart and remained in the chart for a staggering 11 weeks, 7digital indiestore also choose to feature Jake and the Live Sessions Ep in the last week of January. FEBRUARY– A much quieter month, Jake still released two demos to his myspace page for us to hear, ’Chemical World’ and then ’26th Frame’ (both can be heard on the Reverbnation player on the main page), although very different from each other both songs have much darker lyrics to what I have come to expect from him but still keeps the intensity and emotions he incorporates into all his music. MARCH – Saw the launch of the Jake Hook Fan Page which has followed Jake's career closely ever since, and with his help has made that page probably the most informative of his career on the web. APRIL – Jake took a well earned break this month, before releasing ’Hidden’, ’Angry Man’and ’Shuttle Boy’ as demos onto his myspace player. MAY 15th Jake releases ’Shuttle Boy’ as a free download MAY18th - A re-entry for the superb ’Live Sessions’ Ep peaking at number 5 and re-entering the chart on no less than four more occasions was just one of Jakes achievements this month, with the demo release of the very sexy and provocative ’Wanna’ MAY 31st -Jake announced a six week challenge, his intention to write, record and distribute a brand new ep ’SXY’. JUNE 6th - Jake performed with his band at the fabulous Cobden Club in London, performing six songs in all, check out the videos of some of his performance on the main page. JULY 2nd – The first official single from the SXY ep ’Wanna’ was released on download, three weeks after its release and its fantastic run in the top 3 of the 7digital indiestore chart Wanna crept the final two places on the 24th July to the number one spot giving Jake his first 7digital indiestore number one. AUGUST 6th – Released on the 6th the ep ’SXY included seven brand new tracks and the number one 7digital indiestore hit ’Wanna’. The Jake Hook Fan Page became Jakes official UK fan page this month.

OCTOBER 29th - The SXY ep makes a re-entry into the digital chart. NOVEMBER- Saw the launch of the Jake Hook Fan Club, Canada, run by Melissa and the Jake Hook Fan Page (Canada) run by Kristi (both can be found in the Top Friends). Also the announcement of a christmas single from Jake although we were yet to know what and when.

DECEMBER - New songs Anticipating and If It Seems released in demo stage onto Jakes myspace player, both songs different and more loved up for Jake but both fantastic.
