Messaggio personale
I was looking at my future in a box in the attic...
Tutto su di me
I spent the dark half of my lifetime praying to a record player
in those psychedelic hymns we made the violence disappear
Mother Mary came to kiss me in the Beats of Aphex twin
Brian Wilson helped me hear that perfect Harmony within

and at Sixteen years my home was burning to the ocean floor
So I jumped into a life boat and I headed for the shore
and I nearly drowned so many times in life - I can rejoice!
and I wrote 1000 shitty songs while searching for my voice

but I finally got discovered by the guy that signed the Smiths
and he flew me out to London cause he thought he heard a hit
and he took me to the president of Warner Brothers Records and
I sang with demons in my ears that heckled and dismissed me

those Hell hounds snapping at my Heals...

I signed myself a deal, then I threw it all away!
and what I found was much more beautiful then I can say!
In that darkness I looked down on my discoveries-
Like a big blue bird over the highway!

  • New Single ‘On A Saturday’ - Out Monday 26th May 2008

    'On A Saturday' the latest single from Jacob's sensational second album 'Revenge Songs' will be released this Monday 26th May. The song was recorded in Jacob’s bedroom in Portland, Oregon and was inspired by his time living in London, watching the world go by in Soho Square...

    The single comes backed with a quite brilliant cover version of US punk band the Descendents’ controversial/political track ‘Merican.

    Visit the Itunes store tomorrow to buy the single!

    You can watch the video for 'On A Saturday' here in the videos section, or visit Jacob's YouTube channel www.youtube.com/jacobgolden. The video was filmed by Jacob himself whilst on the road in the UK this February.

    Don't miss Jacob live in London at his headline show at the Troubadour on June 3rd!

    Jacob will be giving away a CD of a special RAK Studios recording session to everyone at the show. The CD won't be available anywhere else and Jacob will also be around to sign copies after the show!

  • New Single "Out Come The Wolves" out Monday and a new home!

    I've been back on the west coast of America now for a couple weeks after the UK tour and a great week spent wandering around Brooklyn NY which included a really cool show at my new favourite bookstore in the city Housing Works. Me and mine drove up to Portland OR from Sacramento and after a few days of feverishly hunting around town we've found a place to call home. I've been living out of a suitcase now for nearly a year and as much as I like touring, I can finally set up my beloved home studio again and start hammering out some new songs for the next album. Time to start imagining that next chapter, lots of ideas brewing around, I'll keep you posted on the process.


    Oh yes, I have single coming out on Monday in the UK. In fact it's my very first single from the new album and practically of my life. It's a double A side of "Out Come the Wolves and Zero Integrity".
    I even convinced my record company to press up some Vinyl 7inches (just like mom used to make) and we've sprinkled them like Easter eggs for hard core music fans to hunt down across the UK in indie shops and HMV’s. There's not a lot of them out there so if you want one of these I'd make a move.

    For the rest of us you can also get the single digitally here from itunes:

    Here's a slightly cheeky idea-
    If you already own my album and want to turn your friends onto my music
    you can "gift" the single from iTunes to as many people as you like. It's a cool way
    of helping to spread the word. click here to gift this singlehttp://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/M...
    and it would be very sweet of you I would think! ; )
    Have a wonderful day and weekend!

    I had the pleasure of catching the end of Later With Jools Holland last night My Good Man! I've since become strangely addicted to your songs - absolutely brilliant!

    Sadly it came at the end of your UK tour and not before otherwise I would have headed through to Edinburgh. Alas I shall have to await your return with much anticipation. Take care mate
