Sam Jacobs is a singer songwriter from New York with some major connections in the music industry. But it's clear that Jacobs has succeeded largely on his own with his solid musicianship and introspective lyrics.

Many of the songs from his new release Pain is a Reliable Signal have been affected by the terrible pain his wife experiences as a result of a latent birth defect on her spine. The couple have been on a difficult journey looking for a solution to her incurable condition.

Therefore it is only appropriate that we give a well-deserved thumbs up to the Jacobs for their fortitude in the face of difficulty, and making some great music at the same time.
