Djesse (Vol. 1)

Jacob Collier – the multi-instrumentalist, singer, composer, arranger, producer and 2-time GRAMMY winner – is embarking on a journey that few musicians have attempted. The follow-up to his 2016 debut album is Djesse, a 40-song, 4-volume exploration of the mind of one of music’s finest young talents as Jacob traverses different musical worlds in astonishing ways. Djesse was written, produced and engineered by Collier, composed entirely during 2018 and also features contributions from a global cast of his musical inspirations. Volumes 2 through 4 will be released over the next several months with more details to be announced. “Jazz’s new Messiah” – the Guardian “Absolute genius” – Quincy Jones “Extraordinary… buckle in, it’s a crazy ride” – Jamie Cullum “Probably the best musician of the 21st Century” – Vanity Fair “One of a very, very small handful of truly great artists in the world today” – Hans Zimmer
