Hey
Heartbreaking one moment, rambunctiously disarming the next, Claudia Jacobs is a rare combination of soulful singer, heartfelt poet and spirited entertainer; "few performers can fill a stage as completely." Part Americana singer, part Bluesy Mama; she writes and sings songs about the human experience simply and honestly; addressing joy, pain, confusion, injustice and hope with sass, honesty and humor.
Born in a proverbial "trunk," raised in Northport, NY, she honed her performance and writing skills in NY's Fast Folk Greenwich Village making the famed Speakeasy her musical home for a time where she embraced the rich singer-songwriter folk music tradition she was raised in while adding her unique mixture of genres to create a sound all her own. She draws inspiration from the multiple styles inherent in Americana, spreading into R&B, Soul and Jazz particularly in vocal style.
Awarded the title "Long Island's Favorite Soul Singer" by the Long Island Press, "A Hard-Core Angel" by a fan and "One of the New York areas finest female singer-songwriters..." by WFUV's John Platt; she has shared her music throughout the Northeast and the stage with many luminaries winning new fans from Maine to Wisconsin.
