"Grilled Cheese" is less about food than it is about treating your loved one to a romantic night-in and showing them how much effort you're willing to put in to give them the ultimate satisfaction.

While being reminiscent of D'Angelo, Daniel Caesar, & Childish Gambino, Swedish-Born artist/producer Jacob McCaslin brings his own flair to the mix with colorful guitar garnishes, creamy falsetto vocal stacks, and clever lyrics that will make you turn your head and bring you back for seconds. Jacob plays every instrument on the track which adds to the charming, rustic aesthetic. Available 4/20.

Isn't She Lovely - Acapella

"Combined with rich harmonies, a beautiful melody, haunting lyrics, and Jacob McCaslin's soulful delivery, 'Hold On' is a coming of age story that will provoke an aching sense of nostalgia upon listening."

Lyrics:
Oh it's the end, all childhood stories go
Nobody wins but we all get old

The bars and the swings all seem to lose their size
No going back but we can fantasize

Friends that we had, the trouble we used to make
We grew apart, time seems to separate

We should have known that when our eyes were closed
If we stopped counting backwards from 10 we'd find we'd be all alone

Hold on, hold on, hold on (before it slips away)
Hold on, hold on, hold on (tomorrow turns to yesterday)

We sailed on ships and flew in our fighter jets
No one in sight and no one to second guess

I can't seem to find the brown beat up jacket I wore
If I found it again I'm quite sure it wouldn't fit anymore

Pictures I took, they all developed too
Today they don't show us a passing of time like they used to do

Hold on, hold on, hold on (before it slips away)
Hold on, hold on, hold on (tomorrow turns to yesterday)

Looking back and all I had were excuses
What's the use in dwelling when hindsight is useless
I should have called
I should have called

I gotta hold on
I can't hold on

"Sample My Love" -Superbra - Fika Noise

Jacob McCaslin's new song, "FREE," takes listeners on an uplifting musical voyage, offering sparkly ear candy at every corner and a chorus that will lodge itself in your brain long after your first listen.  
 
While on lock-down due to COVID-19, Jacob and his partner/co-writer Jenny Marie Mitchell realized that the challenges of quarantine may have created opportunities for growth — perhaps especially for so-called introverts and creatives like himself. With the line, “Look, Ma / I’m finally at the party / No invite,” Jacob acknowledges he’s in his element, while still yearning for his peers’ validation.

"FREE" explores a world in which everyone must find new ways to maintain their livelihood. A world where we have the freedom to peer inwards to harness our true potential.  Rather than dwelling on politics, Jacob’s cynical tone throughout the song ("If something was gonna kill me / I think normal might") begs the question, is anyone truly free in our current paradigm?

Free

I always thought the intro of Jackson 5's Never Can Say Goodbye was the best part of the song, so I decided to make a beat out of it. I discovered that James Brown's funky drummer was a perfect fit
