“Mustachioed Mainer, Jacob McCurdy, blends folk, rock, and roots into his very own brand of indie-americana. McCurdy wears his heart on his sleeve, captivating audiences with honest lyricism and soulful melodies. Through collaborative songwriting and a commitment to authenticity, he shares his songs with the hope that others can heal from his experiences and enjoy a glimpse of what the future might bring.
McCurdy's musical journey began with the debut of his first album in 2011. What started as a senior project recording an album for an artist, turned into an opportunity for McCurdy himself to step into the spotlight. Collaborating with his best friend and roommate, Adam Hanson, McCurdy spent Christmas break crafting a record that would kickstart his artistic exploration.
Fast-forwarding through nine years of fronting his wedding band, The Dapper Gents, McCurdy released "For the Weekend (FTW)" on July 24, 2020. This EP significantly shifted McCurdy's musical journey, drawing from deeper life experiences and heartaches. Subsequent releases, such as "Ready to Fall," "Make a Fuss," "Feels Like Home," and "Out On The Run," have showcased McCurdy's growth as an artist, delving into themes of resilience, gratitude, and inner turmoil.
McCurdy continues solidifying his place in the indie music scene, inviting listeners into his journey of love, heartbreak, and self-discovery, hoping to create music that resonates on a profound level.”
