Jake and Abe - Finally! (2024) [Hi-Res]

Jake and Abe — Jake Sherman and Abe Rounds — announce their new LP "Finally!", out October 25. With Finally!, Jake and Abe create a musical paradise that channels the smooth sophistication of classic 70's sounds while introducing an innovative twist. Imagine if Stevie Wonder produced a Loggins & Messina album or if The Isleys collaborated with Captain & Tennille.

Both seasoned musicians, Jake and Abe are members of Meshell Ndegeocello’s band, where they forged a strong bond. In 2024, Abe won a GRAMMY for co-producing, writing, and performing on Meshell’s *Omnichord Real Book*, awarded “Best Alternative Jazz Album.”

Abe’s career highlights include work with Rick Rubin, Blake Mills, and Mark Ronson, recording with Sheryl Crow, Peter Gabriel, and Lizzo, and scoring Martin Scorsese’s "Killers of the Flower Moon". He is also performing with Joni Mitchell at the Hollywood Bowl this October.

Jake Sherman, a master of the keys with a decade of gospel organ experience, has made significant contributions as the writer and pianist on Rosalía’s GRAMMY-winning “Hentai” and the organist on Chance the Rapper’s “No Problem.” He’s collaborated with Nick Hakim and Bilal and toured with Andrew Bird, Blood Orange, and others.

Jake and Abe met while working with Meshell Ndegeocello in 2016, bonding over their shared musical passion. Their new LP Finally! reflects seven years of collaboration, showcasing their unique blend of influences and marking their long-awaited release.
