Peace At Last

Peace At Last, the fourth full-length CD release by singer-songwriter Jay Jacobson, finds him building warm pop grooves, expressive classical elements, and gorgeous harmonies, on top his personal brand of emotional trip-hop. From the defiant opening track, Still Standing, the gut wrenching heartbreak of And Now, and the inspiring chorus of the title track, Peace At Last, this CD's eleven songs weave a stunning trail through the ups and downs of human existence. Jay's soaring falsetto glides over melodious electronica, telling of how we are So Small in a world so large. The dance beats of Overtaken reminds us of that our minds have taken over/taken over our lives. The tracks masterfully look at the human experience, poetically summed up in the chorus of This is Life: there's the good and the bad/and the happy and sad/it all comes with the price of a life. Included in this gorgeous collection of songs, is the bouncy piano driven bonus track, Human Nature, written specifically for his upcoming one-man-show, Mental Creatures, which mixes character driven stories with songs from Jay's CD repertoire. Peace At Last is a captivatingly striking beacon of sound, soul, and heart, among Jay's library of music.
