Biography:
Jake Cascade is an alternative folk musician from Minnesota, now based in New York City. His second album, Where The Road Runs Out, is a folk-hop collection of “bedtime stories for grownups.” Bringing his backcountry background to city streets, Cascade is almost rapping over banjos and beats, finding humor in tragedy and meaning in grief. He is not a rapper.
His debut album, Indie Music, laid the foundation for his evolving sound — a folk-rock journey through the birth, death, and rebirth of his soul.
Whether busking in the park, riding unicycles with his dad, or jamming on Brooklyn rooftops, Jake Cascade is celebrating the human experience.
Press Quotes:
