Artist of the Week: Jacob Pickard
"Listen to as many different sounds as you can get your hands on."
Presenting our Kindred Artist of the Week series! We are big fans of all the artists we work with and we are so excited to share their stories!
This week’s featured artist is local musician Jacob Pickard! You've probably seen/heard Jacob's music all over town - not only does he play his own music, but he often collaborates with other musicians and poets on recordings, performances, and open mics. He'll be at Kindred Post tonight for an interactive Sound Bar - like a salad bar, but for your ears! Play with objects, drum machine, buttons and more to add your unique sound to the live community soundtrack he'll be mixing! 4:30-7p tonight.

What’s next?
Finish a little home studio I’m working on and put all the music I have written over the years into one album, maybe a few shows to go with it, I’m trying not to take myself to seriously these days.....which is not always easy. 😬
