Since I Lost Your Love - Garrett "Big G" Jacobson


A dynamic and soulful guitarist and singer, Garrett “Big G” Jacobson is Oklahoma's favorite working blues artist. Rooted firmly in the blues, but heavily influenced by soul and jazz, Jacobson's unique sound is best described as soul-blues with a dose of funk. Originally a pianist, Garrett began playing guitar at age ten. At age twelve, his playing caught the attention of local blues legend and Oklahoma Jazz Hall of Fame inductee D.C. Minner, with whom Garrett played for the following three years. It was during his tenure with Minner that he became known as Big G. In 1998, Garrett released his first CD, Rhythm Attack, and began booking clubs, casinos and festivals throughout Oklahoma at age fifteen. To date, he has released a total of four CD's which have received critical praise in such publications as Living Blues, Blues Revue and Southwest Blues. His latest CD release, In Person (2011), captures the dynamics and energy of his live show. Garrett and his working band, consisting of a tight rhythm section and horns, serve up an offering of soul-blues with the raw energy and spontaneity that only a live recording can capture. Having performed extensively since '98, Garrett “Big G” Jacobson delivers a world-class show that is sure to please.
