About Evan Jacob

DOWNLOAD MY SONGS ON iTUNES

Hi, my name is Evan.

My car is black and his name is Melvin, but sometimes Dante.

This fall I'm moving to Arizona to get my PhD in Educational Psychology.

I used to live in Manhattan, worked as a professional actor and musician.

Now I'm back in Minnesota writing songs in my basement in the 'burbs.

It means a whole lot that people are listening and relating to my music. I really appreciate it.

Thank you.

Blood Root Mother	Jun 6 2009 3:12 AM What's up? Just stopping by to show some love :-) We appreciate that you're doing your own thing and glad that you're our friend! I wanted to share an insight that I had recently. Blood Root Mother really believe in the power of music. Genuine music transcends all limitations and boundaries, and happens when musicians and listeners are communicating with one another on the deepest level possible. In a society overcome by an obsession with flashy images and stale radio hits, we seek to do something that shakes the foundation of the status quo. Since the dawn of human civilization, music has been about sharing humanity and truly connecting with others. So stay connected with us, and join us on our journey. Peace, Elliot The artistic activity does not lie in art itself as such. It penetrates into a deeper world in which all art forms flow together, and in which the harmony of soul and cosmos in the nothing has its outcome in reality. -Bruce Lee

BESIDE	May 11 2009 7:44 AM Charles Dickens began pasting labels on blaking pots. The tragedy of his first love penetrated the depths of his soul, and converted him into one of the world's truly great authors. That tragedy produced, first, David Copperfield, then a succession of other works that made this a richer and better world for all who read his books. Dissappointment over love affairs, generally has the effect of driving men to drink, and women to ruin; and this because most people never never learn the art of transmuting their strongest emotions into dreams of a constructive nature.
