Jake Sherman
Long ago, Jake Sherman was making his way as a jazz organist. While taking a walk around the pond, the perfect hook for a pop song formed in his mind. He then spent months in his room learning the art of production, and emerged from his jazz chrysalis. With a combination of pop sensibilities, intricate harmonies, and direct yet poignant lyrics, Jake’s sound continues to evolve into a world uniquely his own.
As a sideman, Jake has made significant contributions as the writer and pianist on Rosalía’s GRAMMY-winning Hentai and as the organist on Meshell Ndegeocello’s album No More Water: The Gospel of James Baldwin and Chance the Rapper’s No Problem. He has collaborated with Nick Hakim, Bilal, Andrew Bird, and Blood Orange and recently has been performing with and opening for Meshell Ndegeocello as part of the duo Jake and Abe.
