Jacob Alon is a Scottish singer-songwriter with a profound gift for storytelling. Both intimate and devastatingly introspective, their music is touched by a rare timelessness. Alon’s sound cuts through the air with their powerful and haunting vocals, intricate guitar playing, and pensive, poetic lyrics.

Alon was born and raised by a young single mother in the quiet suburbs of Dunfermline, Fife, between the winding woods and industrial park mystics. They learned their first piano piece from their mum for a school show at age 9 and later picked up the guitar at 15, enchanted by the intimate, somber beauty of wizards such as Nick Drake and Adrianne Lenker.

You’ll often find Jacob playing in the folk bars of Edinburgh and sneaking into places they shouldn’t be. They like roasted aubergines and great Scots Pines, and appreciate the cozy smell of warm wet earth outside their window as they dance, naked, in their flat when no one else is home.
