New Single From Canadian Singer-Songwriter Matthew Ryan Jacobs - Out Now

About Matthew Ryan Jacobs

Matthew Ryan Jacobs is a musician and songwriter based in Kitchener-Waterloo, ON. He started out playing in rock and alternative bands throughout Ontario in the 2000s and opened for many notable artists early in his career.

In 2019 he made the move to focus on his solo career, and to create the music he was most passionate about. His first EP was released in 2021 and blends elements of folk, delta blues, soul, and rock, and was quickly followed up with another single “The River” (“This is truly excellent. Love it. Well done.” – Alan Cross on the River).

After releasing several more singles in 2022, and 2023, Matthew is set to release a follow-up EP The Trouble in Me in August of this year. A more mature, honest, and refined version of his songwriting; this release has taken the best elements of his previous work and created a unique blend of folk, soul, and rock.

Matthew has been described as an “Indie-Folk Gem” who offers “sincerity and vulnerability in its natural state brilliantly.”

ABOUT THE SONG: “Where Are You Now” – released October 24th

“Where Are you Now” is mostly about making changes in your life, whether you want to or not. A lot of my writing over the last few years has had a lot to do with getting older or growth; and the struggle of leaving certain things or people in your past. It’s not intended to be a negative narrative, just honest. Even if you know you’re making the right or at least better decision, you still second guess yourself along the way, at least I do.

“Where Are You Now” just kind of happened, which is the way it goes sometimes. I didn’t over think anything in the process, it felt right, so we went with it. I had a pretty clear vision for the production, and Ben (Kempel) did a great job as usual making it happen.“
