He's a founding member of the gospel-folk collective The Lower Lights and the curator of well-loved annual tribute shows (most recently Tom Petty & Neil Young, but also The Stones, Bowie, Low, and more). His band, The Madison Arm is a fixture of the Utah music scene, known as musicians' musicians. Their latest album, Two-Headed Hearts, features the best, most personal writing and playing of Jacobsen's career. Some reviews:
".. a straight-ahead winner of an album, full of fine songs…sad, majestic. Drawing upon strong lyrics and gorgeous backup vocals...The Madison Arm has made an album deserving of a larger audience." -Scott Murphy, Salt Lake Tribune
"Patterson Hood + Hiss Golden Messenger...a pleasant, poetic treasure—it’s like reading a great writer’s book of short stories that you can’t wait to turn the page" - SLUG magazine
"Folk-rock? Alt-country? Not sure what you’d label it, exactly; I just call it some of the best songwriting in these parts, delivered by masterfully skilled players." - Dan Nailen, Salt Lake City Weekly
