Pi Jacobs
Artist Bio
Pi Jacobs Bio:
Pi Jacobs draws inspiration from her unconventional upbringing in Northern California, where she was raised by “radical hippies, bohemians and nerds”. She is signed to LA’s Blackbird Record Label, and her 2024 album, “Soldier On”, was on the Americana Music Association Chart top 50 upon release in 2024, and stayed there for over 16 weeks.
New Music: Pi has released two new topical singles in 2026. Mrs. Nobody, a powerful ballad with references to to the SAVES act, limiting married women’s right to vote, and Nogales, a song chronicling racial profiling at the Mexican-American border, via a personal experience. “I was having trouble writing, until I started writing about it head on”. The singer-songwriter states, with regards to the political nature of her new music. She is currently recording her next album, which will include Nogales, Mrs. Nobody, and other songs that reflect on the current experience of living in the US. Nogales has been receiving airplay on Sirius XM, The Village, as of July 2026.
Pi’s latest singles:
Nogales https://music.apple.com/us/album/nogales/1895279471?i=6763357346
Mrs. Nobody https://music.apple.com/us/album/mrs-nobody/1862364513?i=1862364514
Live, Pi’s style blends roots-rock swagger and storytelling soul, that has drawn comparisons to Tom Waits, Dolly Parton, and Lucinda Williams. Armed with an old Gibson guitar, her “sultry and explosive” (Glide) voice, and a homemade stomp box, she creates a show that is mesmerizing. In the words of San Luis Obispo’s New Times: “Jacobs' can be funny, poignant, and irreverent, but always personal. She might not heal you, but you'll forget your problems for a few hours”.
Pi’s music has been heard on NPR, DittyTV, Austin Music TV, Americana Highways, American Songwriter Magazine, and regularly on radio tastemakers KCSN (LA) WMOT (Nashville) and WFUV (NYC), and stations across the globe. She has performed at numerous festivals, toured internationally, and was a 2024 Americana Music Festival “official showcasing artist” in Nashville.
