Join the dynamic duo "Jake and Abe," for an intimate night of original songs, laughter, and creativity. Hailing from the USA, this duo brings a refreshing blend of melody, improvisation, and humor to Sydney's Church Street Studios.

Branded as "Too Yacht Rock" by the renowned record label Verve, Jake Sherman and Abe Rounds prefer "Yacht Com."

With an extensive list of recording credits, including collaborations with Meshell Ndegeocello, Rosalia, Nick Hakim, Emily King, Blake Mills, Rick Rubin, Mark Ronson, Pino Palladino, Seal, and many more, Jake and Abe bring a wealth of experience to the stage.

Secure your tickets for a night that transcends genre, delivering an unpretentious blend of music, humor, and a touch of Yacht Com charm. With only 60 tickets available, this intimate show will sell out fast.

"It's got the temperature of the yacht rock paradise that everyone today longs to visit, but the details make it more than just a retro recreation. No one should be blamed for reaching for comparisons to Hall & Oates, but the admixture is a little more unexpected--rather than replicating an album from the 70s, they're formulating something that never quite happened. Imagine Stevie Wonder producing a Loggins & Messina album--or The Isleys working with Captain & Tennille. Don't dismiss the Captain! "Muskrat Love" was diaphanously funky. Abe and Jake would understand.

You can tell the duo has session experience--they show the taste and restraint that comes from playing behind greats, from doing more with less, from crafting a statement out of something small. The songs are breezy and easy but each has its little ingenious touches. They tuck the magic tricks and sonic surprises into the folds of pop songs, which reminds me a little of 10cc, but with way less layers in the cake.

It's not just duo music in name only--you can hear Jake and Abe in sync on every track. There's a simplicity and intimacy to everything that makes it feel like these songs belong to two minds, two mouths, four hands, making music in a room together. These four tracks have the detailing of a debut, but the spareness of a demo. The tracks are simple but deeply pocketed. They're uncluttered but with channels cut that invite all those bubble-bath analog keyboard sounds to flow through the songs in rivulets. This is either a demo that's been given the richness of an album, or an album that has the intimacy of a demo." - Sam Sweet
