THE journey CONTINUES

New Jersey, USA

New campaign "Much Sublime" was build on the success as well as learning from shortcomings of the debut endevour. This effort introduces a series of uplifting singles that can hopefully delight an eclectic music palate. To kick off, the first single " City With Lights On" a melancholic and heartfelt tune that pays tribute to the city life during the recovery of the global pandemic.

With an excellent team behind me, Thomas Monaco (Co Vocal Producer) and Les Lovell (Sound Engineer - The Music Factory) brought strength and integrity to the music production. Many thanks again to my family, friends, and fans for their unwaivering support.

PRESS RELEASE MARCH 1ST, 2024

New Jersey Creative Powerhouse Jacob Chacko Continues to Inspire, with the Launch of Two Brand New Singles for 2024 New Milford, NJ songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Jacob Chacko continues to bring the talent and inspiration. From the well-received album Much Sublime, two brand new singles and videos emerge, the first an intoxicating pop-rock exploration of greater plains. Releasing March 1st and aptly titled Mission To The Universe, the single and its visuals present a sense of both uncertainty and excitement. The performance gathers passionate momentum as the melody rises and the soundscape intensifies. Meanwhile the narrative moves from gritty anticipation through meticulous care to sheer hope – all with a soulful rock groove and dreamy, distant vocals. Backed by striking electric guitar work and addictive harmonies, Mission To The Universe delivers an imaginative journey that most can only dream about.

Shifting gears as ever, keeping fans on their toes and the music industry intrigued, Feel Alive depicts a whole other side of Jacob Chacko’s creative work. Releasing April 12th, the voice of Feel Alive maintains its subtle passion, but here we get a more stripped-back, blues-rock-kissed take on inspiring a sense of individual possibility. The melody is increasingly positive, uplifting in unison with this brightly blossoming soundscape, and the visuals pair this with celebrations of simple yet unforgettable moments; the sort that truly hold the power to make us Feel Alive. Always inspiring, Jacob Chacko writes and plays music to boost the mood of his audience, as well as to showcase an unwavering versatility – a style unconfined by genre or expectation. Professionalism and passion walk hand in hand, and this two-part single release beautifully underlines that. CONNECT WITH JACOB CHACKO: FACEBOOK // INSTAGRAM // SPOTIFY // TWITTER // WEBSITE

PRESS RELEASE : SEPTEMBER 8TH,2023

New Jersey Pop-Rock Sensation Jacob Chacko Teases New Album ‘Much Sublime’, With the Launch of Two Brand New Singles 

Slick riffs and catchy hooks meet with a uniquely creative pop-rock arrangement, as Jacob Chacko releases the latest single from his upcoming album ‘Much Sublime’. 

Releasing September 8th, ‘Much Sublime (We Are)’, features cascading guitars, anthemic short lines, and naturally relatable, uplifting poetic contemplations. 

Designed to celebrate the differences and defiant connections between all humans, the release welcomes all who’ve ever felt marginalised - it embraces and encourages them to believe in better.   

Following on from his debut album ‘Better Now or Never’, ‘Much Sublime’ highlights a distinctly mature approach to songwriting, and a notably immersive overall sound. Backed by a team of renowned producers, the project elevates the strength of Chacko’s songwriting to greater plains than ever before. 

Noting immediate versatility, the subsequent single ‘Make It’, releasing October 27th, adopts a vast and profound aura. Dreamy guitars accompany a thoughtful vocal progression, offering one of the most unique long-form melodies of the current scene. Interwoven amidst this ethereal sound are a string of reflections that again feel deeply evocative. The theme is mental health turmoil and the need to find solace and accept help - whether medicinal, religious, family-based or through counselling – we can work towards the end of emotional darkness. 

Boldly eclectic and consistently heartfelt, ‘Much Sublime’ illuminates a collection of purposeful, colourful originals, from one of Indie’s most passionate songwriters.

PRESS RELEASE - MAY 3RD, 2023

Jacob Chacko Gears Up To Launch New Album ‘Much Sublime’ with a Series Of Enticing Singles  

New Jersey independent Jacob Chacko secures his role within the future of Pop-Rock, with the scattered release of his extensive new album ‘Much Sublime’.  

Following on from the brightness and embrace of his debut album ‘Better Now Or Never’, and singles like ‘Good Moment’, ‘Enjoy The Show’, and ‘No Goodbyes’, the new body of work promises strong production and an equal sense of humanity and possibility – aiming to inspire listeners with equal parts warmth and positivity; across a handful of infectious melodies and sentiments.  

Releasing May 5th, the first single from ‘Much Sublime’ will be ‘City With Lights On’, a divinely mellow, electric-guitar-led ballad, with aptly-blissful imagery and dreamy production. Delving into a multitude of images and reflections on the modern world, the song looks back at life in the big cities during recovery from the impact of COVID. Devoted and genuine, ‘City With Lights On’ acts as an ode to the courage of first responders throughout the Pandemic.  

Within the following two months, the second single ‘Back For More’ will launch – a distinctly more upbeat song focused on good vibes and fun, with crisp riffs and more of those organic strong melodies that make up much of the Jacob Chacko repertoire. ‘Back For More’ explores the topic of growing up, finding your own voice and the confidence to move through life with strength and integrity.  

Both singles are set to emerge with an accompanying video that naturally furthers the optimistic embrace and heart of the writing.  

Featuring 11 songs in total, ‘Much Sublime’ will speak volumes on behalf of the sincere and hopeful sound of Jacob Chacko.
