TWO DUDES. ONE BEARD. 14 STRINGS. At the end of a long day traversing the White Mountains, when the sun has laid down behind the horizon and the shush of the forest descends, there’s a certain feeling that builds around the campfire. When Drew and Stu started Jake Swamp and The Pine, this is the kind of moment they wanted to capture. Since forming at the end of 2018, Jake Swamp and The Pine have performed relentlessly around their native Somerville, playing shows at The Middle East, Toad, Lizard Lounge, The Burren, City Winery, and Nightshift Brewery’s Brite Lites Music Festival in addition to partnering with SoFar Sounds for a number of concerts. Recently, the band finished 2020 with two nominations at the Boston Music Awards (Americana Act of The Year, Drew Zieff for Vocalist of The Year).
