Jacob Banks

Nigerian-born British singer-songwriter Jacob Banks is known for his unmistakable voice—rich, raw, and steeped in soul—blending R&B, hip-hop, and blues into a sound that’s both timeless and boundary-pushing. After a string of EPs, he made his mark with ‘Village’ (2018), a striking debut that set the tone for his fearless storytelling. This was followed with ‘Lies About The War’ (2022) and ‘Our Time Together’ (2024), which further captured the depth and power of his artistry and storytelling. His latest project, ‘Yonder’, unfolds as a three-part anthology, pushing his sound into bold new territories while staying rooted in the raw emotion and authenticity that define his work.
