Hire: Jakob Dylan
GRAMMY award-winning Jakob Dylan (born December 9, 1969) is an American singer-songwriter, best known as the frontman and songwriter for the rock band The Wallflowers.
Son of the legendary folk singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, Jakob grew up in New York City and Los Angeles.
Though inevitably linked to the musical legacy of his father, Bob Dylan, Jakob’s own influences leaned towards British rock, like The Clash, who inspired him to pick up music himself. He started in various Indie bands before forming The Wallflowers in 1989.
The Wallflowers rose to fame in the 1990s with their alternative rock sound, drawing comparisons to heartland rock legends like Tom Petty.
Songs like “6th Avenue Heartache” and the Grammy Award-winning “One Headlight” cemented their place in music history.

In 1997, the band performed shows as headliners and openers for acts such as Sheryl Crow and Counting Crows. They also opened for Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in January 1997, as well as for the Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan in November 1997.
In June 1997, Jakob Dylan was featured on the cover of Rolling Stone. In the issue’s accompanying interview, Dylan spoke at length about his lineage for the first time.
In October 2000, Dylan was featured on the cover of Rolling Stone for a second time.
The Wallflowers embarked on a tour that lasted through the end of 2000 and into 2001, making stops in Japan and Madison Square Garden in New York for a four-night run, opening for the Who.
In the spring of 2013, The Wallflowers did an arena tour opening for Eric Clapton.
Jakob Dylan has also pursued a solo career, releasing two albums.
In September 2015, Jakob Dylan released a duet online with Cat Power covering the Byrds’ “You Showed Me” (which was later popularized by the Turtles). The song is a track on the 2019 studio album called Echo in the Canyon, in which Dylan covers songs in duets by 1960s-era Southern California folk rock artists, such as the Turtles, the Mamas & the Papas, Buffalo Springfield, and the Beach Boys.
Dylan, along with Regina Spektor, Cat Power, Beck, Fiona Apple, and Jade Castrinos, performed these songs in a concert at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles in October 2015.
Jakob Dylan has dabbled in other creative endeavors, including acting and serving as executive producer for a documentary film. Despite his famous father, Jakob has carved his own path in the music industry, earning recognition for his songwriting and musicianship.
