Jacob Whitesides Biography

“Landing in Europe for the first time was one of the coolest moments of my life” says 17-year-old singer-songwriter Jacob Whitesides. “Coming into Copenhagen airport I was surrounded by all these fans who had been supporting me for so long. There were girls passing out. It was insane!”
Jacob’s first overseas trip was a world away from what you’d expect from a common teenage rite-of-passage. But then Jacob is hardly your typical teenager. For this is a young artist with a social media following of over 5 million people and who went straight to #1 on the iTunes singer/songwriter chart with the release of his debut EP ‘A Piece Of Me’. Already in scintillating form he then topped the charts in the UK Canada Portugal Australia Brazil and France.
What’s more he’s done it all on his own terms. Sure he could’ve taken the major route and been molded into the next pop puppet but this fiercely independent spirit instead opted to become the CEO of his own touring merchandising and record label Double U Records which recently partnered with BMG. Empowerment is extremely important to Jacob and he’s proving how musicians can establish a credible career for themselves by using the available democratic and free media platforms to support their music. Jacob hopes his fans are inspired by this pursuit and know that they too can have control over their destiny. No wonder Wired Magazine recognised his pioneering spirit and invited him to speak at their flagship London conference Wired 2015.
