Jacob Weil (pronounced Wheel) is a road-worn singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based out of Vancouver, BC. As a solo artist and songwriter, Jacob began as a teenager, but quickly switched gears to a life on the road bringing to life the music of his friends. It was during years on tour across North America with Canadian folk/roots acts Luca Fogale and Sam Weber that Jacob rediscovered his love of songwriting in the back of the van after shows and during the few weeks at home between tours. Floating purposefully between the genres of Folk, Americana and Alternative music, Jacob’s songs often leave the listener reminiscing of a not so distant past, like a blurred memory obscured by the trials of the present moment.
Jacob Weil has performed in Sofar Vancouver, Sofar Boise, Sofar NYC, Sofar Seattle, and Sofar Los Angeles.
