I live and play in Toronto and the surrounding area. Over the years I've had to opportunity to play with a number of extremely talented people, each who have left their mark on me.
The guitar is my first love (so much that I build my own instruments, cabinets and effect pedals). Always exploring and learning, I also sing, play bass, some synths, program, and bang on hand drums and other percussion instruments.
This page highlights some songs from one of the many styles that I am currently writing in. I'm also working on soundtrack material, industrial rock, hard rock, ambient looped-based, and producing and recording other artists.
Some of the highlights of my career have been opening for 30 Seconds to Mars and The Exies. My music has been licensed to Dreamworks, Paramount, Warner Bros., CNN, Fox, E! Networks, FX Network, various corporate clients, and I have participated in the creation of sample libraries for East West, Sony, and Big Fish Audio.
Currently I am working with my band, Machinekind, recording our latest album, and putting the finishing touches on my studio.
Be well,
jacob
