Jacob Vanags

Lets take a trip to New York.  One of the hardest places to make it in music.  If you're a native of the New York land, then you've probably heard of an artist by the name of Jacob Vanags.  Jacob Vanags is one of the results of the revolutionary pop piano style created by Ben Folds.  The only difference about Jacob Vanags is the elimination of jazz in his style.  Being that Jacob Vanags is based soley on the pop genre in his piano style makes him a much more popular choice in New York.

Why do we, the Indie Team, like Jacob Vanags?  What makes him stand out from other musicians.  Well to be quite honest, Jacob Vanags isn't a super popular artist.  He's basically a local New York musician.  He doesn't compete in the music industry with mainstream artists yet, but we feel that he has the potential to do so.  It's just a matter of time.  But to answer the previous question, we would have to say his offstage actions do the trick for standing out from other musicians.

Of course Jacob Vanags is a good musican.  Of course he has a good live show.  And of course he has great original music.  That's a given.  Why else would he be on our blog?  The reason he stands out is because he makes people feel great.  His live show isn't just entertainment, it's involvement.  I actually produced a show with Jacob Vanags.  The whole experience was great.  He ended up driving from New York to Pennsylvania just to play for a small crowd.  As he set up his equipment, he interacted with local fans who showed up early.  He stayed after the show to talk with some new fans he made.  And most importantly he worked well with all of the employees at the venue.  It was like everyone was already friends with Jacob Vanags.

Why Jacob Vanags?  I've never heard of this guy in my life!  These are typical things that you might be saying to yourself right now.  The man is phenomenol.  That's all we can say to get across the great quality of his music.  Go check it out for yourself.  Are there any local bands that are similar to what we've provided?
