Powerhouse Songwriters Based in Toronto, Canada, Jake started in the early 1990s by forming a band that combined his interest in traditional jazz, jump blues, rockabilly and punk. The lyrical style was inspired by his love for powerhouse songwriters like Tom Waits, Jacques Brel and Berthold Brecht. These ideas took him and his music around the world.

Big Rude Jake’s return to the recording side of the music business was marked by the 2009 release of Quicksand – yet another departure, inspired by Americana, Ragtime, Roots, Gospel and Folk.

The enthusiastically crowd-funded live album, Live & Out Loud, launched October 3rd, 2012. It gives listeners the chance to capture the feeling of "being there". Ask anyone who's experienced a "Jake" show in person.

Two more albums were not far behind. Rude had been busy with his pet side projects:

Rockabilly band, Tennessee Voodoo Coupe’s 2nd album, Over the Moon launched at Viva Las Vegas 2013.

The release of Blue Mercury Coupe’s 6 piece retro punk (with horn section!) recording, Band of the Future followed just a few weeks later.

2014 brought more big endeavours. He created and launched Blues for the Red Door, a cleverly conceived annual blues extravaganza in support of the Red Door Family Shelter.

The next BRJ album was going to be The Jackhammer Sessions, which will be released in the future in some form. At this point, one single, IDIFTM, is available for download and streaming in the usual places, with more to follow. Jake made his own video for it. He left us with more work to be released. It will take TLC, time and money, but it's coming.
