Take a trip to Pluto with Jake Wesley Rogers!After months of anticipation, singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Jake Wesley Rogers propels himself into the stratosphere with the release of his label debut EP Pluto, available now via Facet Records/Warner Records – listen HERE.
To celebrate the EP release, Jake is set to perform on The Late Late Show with James Corden on Tuesday, October 5.
The Pluto EP features previously released singles “Weddings & Funerals,” “Middle of Love,” and “Momentary,” along with 3 new tracks. Regarding the EP, he commented, “I began writing the Pluto EP in London in 2019 when my grandpa was dying from heartbreak and my lover and I were nearing the end of our relationship. Working with some of my dream songwriters like Eg White and Justin Tranter, I went deeper than I ever have before in exploring my relationship with love and how it’s taken a toll on me and everyone around me.”
Born in Kansas City, MO, Jake Wesley Rogers combines skyscraping vocals, eloquent songcraft, and driving instrumentation to give pop a jolt of infectious integrity and soaring spirit. Generating 20 million-plus streams independently, he captivated a growing fanbase with various singles and the Evergreen EP [2017] and Spiritual EP [2019]. Grammy-nominated songwriter Justin Tranter heard the powerful and poetic “Jacob From The Bible,” fell in love with Jake’s music, and signed him to Facet Records/Warner Records in 2020. Jake Wesley Rogers’ bold music is queer storytelling refracted through a universal lens; it’s inspired by the authenticity and artistry of his heroes like Madonna, Stevie Nicks, and Florence + the Machine.
