JAKE MORLEY

Jake says “I love writing and I’m at my happiest on a stage performing with my amazing band.  I’ve met wonderful people who come to my gigs so I’m really looking forward to everything we’ve got planned for the coming year.”

“We like this a lot” Dermot O’Leary, Radio 2

“He is certainly something else!  Very charismatic and a fantastic singer and guitar player.”  Janice Long, Radio 2

“Jake Morley and his impressive band more than have what it takes… an ambitious pop sound that is every bit as bright and sparkly as the main player himself”   4 stars   The Independent

JAKE CONVERTS AUDIENCES INTO FANS

Jake’s intriguing lap tapping guitar style, his strong songs and engaging performances convert initially curious audiences into ardent fans at every gig. In 2011 he performed across the UK, from Thurso in Scotland down to Exeter. Along the way, he was asked to deliver a marriage proposal from the stage on behalf of one fan to another (she said yes!), one supporter spent 6 months making an animation video of one of Jake’s songs, several drove over 180 miles to see him play, many came to 4 or 5 gigs in a row with more friends each time, and another made a 10 foot long banner and hung it in the street to greet him.

RADIO & PRESS SUPPORT

National radio support has come from Dermot O’Leary, Jo Whiley, Janice Long, Alex Lester, Vanessa Feltz, Tom Robinson and Chris Hawkins, and over 40 regional radio stations. He’s received glowing national press reviews for his sold out gigs and performances including City Showcase, Music Week Breakout and two nights at the Hammersmith Apollo supporting Joe Bonamassa.

“Jake Morley is not just your average bloke with guitar, he stuns crowds with his unique style and is always a show stealer.”  BBC Introducing

“It’s phenomenal to watch him but it’s still more daunting to consider that he also sings up a storm and writes cracking songs.  Morley is a true original”.  Acoustic Magazine
