About

Jacob McLeod

Jacob McLeod became obsessed with music, specifically indie folk/rock, during the lockdown of 2020. With time on his hands, he discovered his passion for performing and creating his own songs, inspired by the likes of Bob Dylan and Hozier. Now 21, he’s made a name for himself as one of the premier upcoming songwriters and performers in the state of Michigan. After years of extensive touring, writing, and recording, he is gearing up for the release of his biggest project yet: his sophomore album, made completely at his home studio in Big Rapids.

ATJ (full band)

After forming in high school band class, ATJ has been performing around the state of Michigan for years. Their performances are always bursting with energy, something that has carried over into their debut EP release, recorded at Central Michigan University. With Jacob McLeod on vocals and guitar, Owen Ettinger on saxophone, Gabe Nagy on bass, and Austin Hinkley on drums, the group has solidified themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the Michigan music scene. Stream the new EP, "Lost and Found" everywhere.
