“Stand out new folk… superb” BBC Radio 6
Jacob & Drinkwater have come a long way since their first gig together in a tea tent at Glastonbury 2014, cementing their reputation as one of the most enthralling live acts on the scene.
The duo of acoustic singer- songwriter Tobias ben Jacob and multi-instrumentalist Lukas Drinkwater return with a UK tour this September featuring a brand new set of songs (and a sprinkling of their hits) from their forthcoming album More Notes From The Field due out this autumn. Written during lockdown the new album centres around the themes of friendship and human connection alongside some of the “mercurial, mysterious and intimate” FRUK songs the duo are known for.
The live show will capture some of the album’s sonic landscape broadening out from the core sound of fingerpicked guitar, upright bass and rich harmonies that the duo are known for. Expect a dynamic and emotionally varied gig sprinkled with moments of musical brilliance, joy, spontaneity and humour.
