Based out of Dartmouth NS, Jake Ballard is a  uncompromising DIY east coast artist. His music is a mosaic of roots-rock, psychedelic and acoustic soundscapes drawing influences from across the 20th century, anything from Link Wray to The Cranberries. Often performing with a signature virtuosic fingerpicking guitar style, Ballard's catalog is a spectrum of relaxed inviting pieces and psychedelic electric anthems. His diverse and unpredictable musicianship is known for keeping audiences hooked from the first chord to the last note.
