Jacob Alon announces their Dan Carey-produced debut album, In Limerence

"It’s centred around the story of a cousin of mine who tragically drowned in a freak accident before I was born," Jacob Alon says of the new single. "I never knew him personally, but I’ve always had an idea painted in my mind of what he’d be like through the memories & stories of my family members. Because of this, I’ve always had a kind of fictional relationship to him. So, this song takes place in the liminal space between worlds, from his fictional perspective."

"In a strange bout of synchronicity, just as I was writing this song, I received a message from my cousin’s brother - who told me the story of how he and my cousin used to pick a record each night to fall asleep to - I found this to be a wildly meaningful coincidence," Alon continues. "This brother is also one of the only other musicians in my family and he shared an ambient album he had made dedicated to his late brother that was intended to be listened to whilst falling asleep."

The album was recorded in London and produced by Dan Carey. It features all of Jacob’s singles released to date – "Fairy In A Bottle", "Confession", and "Liquid Gold 25". Jacob Alon takes these songs out on the road for the rest of the year, firstly in support of Olly Alexander in rooms across the UK and Europe, and then three headline shows of their own in London, Manchester and Glasgow.
