Singer: Jahcoustix
Job: Singer & Songwriter
Location: Germany
Genre: Reggae
Biography:
Jahcoustix`s youth was a nomad ́s life, spending his childhood and youth in Mexico, Liberia, New York, Kenya and Egypt. After returning to Germany at the age of 20, Jahcoustix fully dedicated his life to music and has ever since departed on a journey that has taken him and his songs half way around the world.
In the past 10 years Jahcoustix released 6 studio albums and played over 1000 live concerts in a great number of countries. This fall, Irievibrations Records will release an unplugged Version of the latest Album Frequency, entitled „Acoustic Frequency“. The record features acoustic Versions and a number of previously unreleased Bonus Tracks, including an unplugged Version of „World Citizen“ featuring Shaggy.
The orchestration of the album blends Acoustic Guitars, Rhodes & Hammond organs as well as percussions. Besides his lead-‐vocals Jahcoustix used his voice to re-‐create the brass lines from the original “Frequency” album with a mouth-‐trumpet flavor.
In November 2014, Jahcoustix released on tour with his acoustic duo to promote the unplugged Album and will be the first German Reggae Artists to ever play a Tour in New Zealand.
In June 2016, he returns with a new studio album "Seriously Positive"
