Jake is a musician, comedian, writer and educator whose artistic journey has taken me halfway around the world and back. He left an Ivy League education and transferred to Berklee College of Music in 2010, in order to turn his greatest passion into a full-time career. Jake’s eclectic resume includes founding indie rock band Drunken Logic, countless dueling piano shows, music directing for improv and sketch comedy, and countless other gigs. Since moving to Los Angeles in March 2018, Jake has starred in a musical at the Hollywood Fringe Festival and co-written and -starred in a sketch show at the world famous Second City comedy theater, where he also works as a music director and a faculty union organizer. He has worked as an educator for a variety of schools non-profit organizations, and created a songwriting curriculum for charter middle- and high-school students through the LOUD program during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2022, Jake graduated with honors and a degree in community music from the University of Southern California, and this academic work has led to published articles, podcast episodes, and presentations at conferences around the world. While doing all of this, Drunken Logic released The Loudness Wars, a rollicking concept record (and in-development musical theater production) about American polarization and decay, and continued to release singles and EPs as well.
