One of five siblings born in the South Texas town of Weslaco, this Rocking-Gypsy Blues player was said to have started playing at 3 years of age. Influenced and taught by his father’s Mexican-Folk style, Jake soon acquired a love and passion for classical music. His father always played for fun and would bring his family together to play by passing around the guitar. Jake studied classical, jazz, and opera in college, while his fingers were unleashing burning “licks” yearning to go out and perform for crowds.
Jake has great respect for his influences like his father, Johnny Cash, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and the Eagles; however Jake has applied his own interpretation of their music into his own style. Jake is currently working on a new project that will showcase his talent as the next great guitar player to grace our presence. Jake is currently touring South Texas developing a following and a buzz that will soon burst on to the national scene.
