JACOB BANKS Born in Nigeria, British artist Jacob Banks wasn’t exactly planning to go professional, until his family and friends pushed him towards the light. And we thank them for that ! After taking a step in different genres of arts and sports, the 26 year-old singer-songwriter eventually found in music everything he needed to express the experiences that shaped him -from happy to painful. Through his EPs « The Monologue » (2013) and « The Paradox » (2015) until the dazzling « The Boy Who Cried Freedom » (2017), Jacob Banks tells his story with a roughness in the voice and a delicacy on the pen. The same contrast defining his personality : uncomprising and elegant.
