He is known for his lyricism\, vivid voice and guita r playing which masterfully blends Americana\, pre-war blues and flamenco techniques to create a captivating sound. Leonard Cohen’s long-time friend \, biographer and Spanish translator\, Alberto Manzano\, has praised Jake' s “powerful and precise musical fusions” and “bold and dynamic philosophy\ ,” writing that in Jake’s songs “nature\, religion and love meld into one another and the artistic personality of their author bursts through\, inno cent as a whale who longs to be a child again\, and experienced as a spong e that has absorbed all waters and now wrings them out\, drop by drop\, co nverting them into luminous musical notes and words.” \nBiography\nJake Sh ane played his first concert in 2004 in his hometown of Springfield\, Illi nois and has been gigging ever since. He left the Midwest in 2008 to move to Nashville\, where he received a degree in Philosophy\, worked for John Prine’s Oh Boy Records and composed the songs to his first album\, Ancient Fire (2012). This debut album combines the folk\, blues and americana Jak e grew up listening to with lyrics that drew inspiration from The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky.\nIn The Fall of 2012\, Jake moved to Spai n. While becoming fluent in Spanish he absorbed himself in Madrid’s flamen co scene\, learned about the flamenco tradition\, wrote reviews for the po pular flamenco website chalaura.com and taught himself flamenco guitar. In 2014\, his translation of Pablo San Nicasio’s book\, Contra las cuerdas ( Strings Attached) was published by Oscar Herrero Ediciones. This work is t he largest published collection of interviews of contemporary flamenco gui tarists.\nThe musical work resulting from this period was Evening Sounds ( 2015)\, an album steeped in flamenco guitar with a neat blend of americana and folk\, combined with lyrics drawn from personal experiences in Spain. \nAfter Jake’s time in Spain\, he moved back to the U.S.\, but didn’t stay in one place for long. Between 2015 and 2017 he found himself living in N ashville\, Florida\, New York\, Washington D.C.\, and New Mexico. He spent months hitchhiking through Mexico with his brother\, traveled to Cuba\, I srael\, back to Spain\, and drove across the U.S. a few times. All the whi le\, Jake was steadily composing songs for his next record. \nMuch of the writing for his third album\, Water To Land (2018)\, was finished in an is olated adobe house one winter in the high desert of New Mexico. After Jake ’s definitive return to Madrid\, he recorded Water To Land in the summer o f 2018\, in Moba Studios with producer Sergio Molina. Most of the album wa s recorded live\, in three days\, with a band of Englishmen. \nJake has to ured the United States and Europe extensively\, performing 80 concerts a y ear. His fourth album of original songs\, Kalina &\; Other Modern Myths \, was released in October 2019 to great reviews. The album contains twelv e songs and was recorded live at Moba Studios in a single day. \nThe year 2020 will be a busy one\, with Jake performing in nearly a dozen countries \, while continuing to write songs for a new album. A new single is expect ed to be released in Spring 2020. \n\n \nNew Album on Spotify: spoti.fi/35 NKK0v \n\n\nLive performance: https://youtu.be/mYUi7ratVSQ\nMusic Video: h ttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLetB-W7s1Q\n\nAll Social Media links: http s://linktr.ee/jakeshanemusic\n \n http://grauer-esel-harburg.de/index.php/ veranstaltungen/event/1386-als-konserve-the-only-american-on-tour-jake-sha ne-live-eintritt-frei-hutgeld-\,-anmeldung-zwingend-erforderlich.html DTSTART:20201102T190000Z DTEND:20201102T215900Z LOCATION:Grauer Esel Harburg (Karnapp 5\, 21079 Hamburg) SUMMARY:ALS KONSERVE: The Only American On Tour: Jake Shane - Live!
