2024 marked the 40th anniversary of Jake Dollery’s dynamic musical journey. It all began when he first stepped on stage to front a band put together for a college Christmas show. By 1987, he was leading The Dead Legionnaires as their singer and guitarist, setting the tone for a career defined by fearless creativity and genre-bending sounds.

​

Over the decades, Jake has fronted a range of musical outfits, including the quirky Jake & The Space Cakes and the rock/pop powerhouse The Fisherkings. In the mid-90s, he took a step back from live performances to focus on songwriting and production, before triumphantly returning to the stage in 2009 with intimate, soul-baring solo acoustic sets that quickly won over audiences.

​

Jake’s songwriting seamlessly fuses rock, punk, indie, and pop, delivering raw, honest lyrics with unmistakable passion. His latest release: In So Deep — a high-energy, emotionally charged collection of six brand new compositions — is available now on all major streaming platforms and Bandcamp.

​

A collaborative spirit at heart, Jake has worked with a host of talented musicians, including Mark Summers, Charlie Waygood, and Neil Fouracre. His music has earned international acclaim and regular airplay across the UK, US, Australia, and Europe.

​

Beyond recording and performing, Jake hosts The Jake Dollery Radio Show, a two-hour weekly broadcast on Radio Wigwam, where he champions independent artists and fresh new sounds which has earned him a Bronze award at the ISSA 7th annual awards. 

​

With eight albums and a 6 track EP to his name — including an electronic chill-out album and a compilation — Jake Dollery is a Radio Wigwam and ISSA award-nominated artist, continuing to create, inspire, and connect with audiences around the world.
