艺人介绍
Jacob Collier is recognized as one of the world’s most distinctive, inventive and prodigious young musicians. Based in London, UK, Jacob has been inspired by many sounds – his music combines elements of Jazz, A cappella, Groove, Folk, Trip-hop, Classical music, Brazilian music, Gospel, Soul and Improvisation (to name a few), which culminate to create the world of "Jacob Collier."
Jacob grew up in a family of musicians, and has honed his musical ideas from a very young age. He has embraced the world of the Internet to share his uniquely creative talent, becoming best known for creating his trademark multi-faceted YouTube videos from his music room at home, wherein he sings all the parts, plays all the instruments, and visualises every component with a mosaic of screens. Since his first YouTube upload in December 2011, Jacob’s online social channels have garnered over 145K international followers and more than 6.5 million YouTube views. With viral hits such as his rendition of the Stevie Wonder classic, “Don’t You Worry ‘Bout A Thing,” Collier has gained a global following, and some of his greatest fans among the elite Jazz community include Quincy Jones, Herbie Hancock, Pat Metheny, Chick Corea, Steve Vai and Take 6, to name a few.
Jacob has spent the last year collaborating with Ben Bloomberg at the MIT Media Lab in Boston, designing and building a groundbreaking solo live performance vehicle, which brings his one-man, multi-instrumental, multi-visual format of music making to the stage in a way that has never been seen or heard before. Jacob recently debuted this show at the Montreux Jazz Festival, opening for Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea. The Guardian heralded Collier as “jazz music’s new messiah” after witnessing the pre-debut run at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club in London and Jazzwise magazine named him “The Future of Music.”
Collier is concurrently working on commissioned arrangements for high-calibre orchestras and bands around the world, traveling to give Masterclasses at various schools and universities, and collaborating with many different musicians, including being featured on Snarky Puppy's Family Dinner Vol. 2 and collaborating with Take 6. Jacob was also involved in Beats by Dre’s Ruby World Cup “The Game Starts Here” television and online campaign, where Jacob arranged and recorded “Jerusalem” as the soundtrack for their spot. The video on YouTube has garnered over 7.5 million views.
Most recently, Jacob released his third single, "Saviour", on June 1st from his debut album In My Room after his successful launch of two previous singles “Flintstones” and “Hideaway”. The album is set to be out on July 1st, 2016 and in preparation for its launch, he plans to be releasing 2 more subsequent singles and videos on the first of each month; June 1st, and July 1st.

- @ʚ宇宙最甜ɞ：今天在blue note看了现场，真的非常震撼… 台上的所有乐器他都会，电贝司double bass，吉他架子鼓钢琴，不仅仅是会，而是精通。 不仅现场还原了mv的质量，并且他特别会带动气氛，把左边和右边的观众分成两个声部，唱两个不同的旋律，加入他的演出，每个人都特别high。中间他还跑下来绕场一周，怎么说呢，他是一个有趣的天才，能静能动，有颜有才。 他就是未来。 观看途中几度失落，觉得自己实在是太渺小了。也极度感动，为这个世界上还有这么完美的人存在感动。 演出结束后大家都在排队跟他合影，他特别nice的对每个人，非常sweet，还看到周迅和阿雅一直在怂恿窦靖童去跟他合照，因为童童很害羞。hhh
- @黄走走：Jacob的音乐，拓展了乐器与和声的更多可能性，越听越有种拨云见日的感觉。
- @Ashley Lee：☺️9.27号有幸在韩国看了他的现场，有幸买到了前排，喜欢JC一年多了，这次有幸在他开场前试音的时候就跟他交谈并且合影，我告诉他我来自中国，他回答Amazing！这次公演绝对是我看过最棒的，在《Saviour》和《black bird 》和我们互动！至今意犹未尽☺️有幸散场后得到三张签名以及合影！可能我这一辈子也就这一位爱豆了努力去英国看你JC的公演。
