Jacob Slade
I’m a lifelong Wisconsinite & write, record, & produce all of my music at home in Milwaukee. I’ve been independently releasing as ‘Jacob Slade’ since 2019 and, since then, have shared three full-length albums, landed placements on Spotify’s juniper, Morning Acoustic, & ‘Fresh Finds’ playlists , and gotten to share my music with over a million (!!!) of you around the world. My music falls somewhere between indie-folk & dream-pop, which has led me to start defining my sound as ‘dream-folk’. I see dream-folk as music that feels ethereal, introspective, & nostalgic thanks to rich & textured soundscapes, tender acoustic elements, & pop sensibility. I also love to leave hidden sounds in my music (birds chirping, floor creaks, etc.) to help bring you further into my headspace & highlight the beauty I see in combining music with the sounds of day-to-day life. For live shows, I’m very fortunate to be joined by my good friends & bandmates: Austin Wood, Anthony Kopczynski, Bailey Fiste, and Jacob Olson. I’m currently working on my fourth full-length album with tentative release plans for May 2025.
