A biography for Jacob Collierhasn’t been written yet.
“I love the interaction with people online, I love engaging with the fans.”
“I find it difficult to stand up for what you are and what your essence is, and seeing that clearly can be an unbelievably hard thing to do.”
“I enjoy exploring music so much.”
“I always created things, layered things on top of each other. That hasn't changed at all. With this first album, it was basically a celebration of that process of inventing and building sounds.”
“In my experience, my music has drawn people of all ages, which is a real wonderful thing. And at my gigs you get everyone from six year olds to 90 year olds. And I find that really quite moving, actually.”
“The whole 'Djesse' project is, like, the paramount example of something that has evolved alongside me creating it. It started as one album, and then I realized that I had too many ideas for just one album.”
“I think that the journey of self to truth is always kind of a gnarly one.”
