Jeff Lake Releases Debut EP “Field of Grass”
Jeff Lake Releases Debut EP “Field of Grass” Singer/songwriter tempers his own melancholy with a new uptempo song by Janis Ian
Jeff Lake follows up his 2020 release “Cellophane Flowers” with his own solo release, “Field of Grass” - a 5 song collection of covers and originals due for digital release on 8/20/21. CDs containing a bonus track are due 10/1/21.
The opening song “Better Times Will Come” by Janis Ian, immediately sets a positive, uplifting tone. Written at the advent of covid, Ian was connected with Lake via WBA Records in Nashville. Lake puts his own upbeat spin on the track, ornamenting it with fiddle, banjo, mandolin & upright bass. It quickly became a fan fav on Ian’s own site garnering 3k views on Lake’s YouTube channel.
The tune serves in contrast to Lake’s own material including the title track which speaks to themes of isolation, fatalism, and environmentalism.
Coming out of the gate this summer, Lake has been selected by Reverbnation as one of NYC’s Most Popular Upcoming Artists. Jeff Lake already has over 12,500 monthly listeners on Spotify via the “Penny Lane” release with Cellophane Flowers. The new album, “Field of Grass” will be released in digital and physical outlets worldwide.
Recording artist Jeff Lake combines elements of rock, folk, bluegrass & country music for his own brand of Americana.
A multi-genre songwriter, he has written music for Universal Greece recording artist, Michalis, the theme song for CBS’s Latin American Idol spinoff show, the “Nueva Estrella Awards”, as well as recent collaborations with up & coming hip hop artist, Seon.
As a guitarist & band-leader, Jeff has perfected his craft by playing alongside members of the Billy Joel Band, the Dennis DeYoung Band (Styx), and the Transiberian Orchestra.
His career began as a frontman for hair metal band, Big Bang, opening for groups such as Winger, White Lion & Extreme. His melodic, lyric-driven songs and down-to-earth approach are gaining him an international audience.
