Jake Kohn Is FAR BEYOND HIS YEARS....

[@jakekohnmusic2334]

Thanks so much for sharing. I appreciate it big time. I don't smoke by the way haha

[@67wing]

I love your music Jake, I just worry because your songs are so sad. I hope you have much joy in your life

[@disembodiedspirits]

Greetings from a fan in Sweden, Jake.

[@jimmyyoung6568]

Great stuff. Great song writing. Can't wait to hear a full album.

[@adamtaylorification]

Give give fan Jake. Love what you do and how you do it. Come to SC

[@adammusecourtney5466]

Just keep doing you Jake!

[@jonathanmiller5089]

I can't believe this! Jake is from my home town and is blowing up! I'm so proud of this kid! Get em Jake

[@royeframe4786]

This 15 year old FEELS IT.. I FEEL IT WHEN HE SINGS IT. LORD LORD LORD SURE HES YOUNG BUT IM FLOORED BY HIS VOICE. So much emotion. I hope he goes far. Found him out a few weeks ago.. Frostbite is a fave .. Lorraine is 🎉 Heart of stone yup I like his sound. Not all screaming bs and wild with sound.. His voice is like magic. He has great ballads..

[@dakotabarriger4546]

Been listening to Jake for a little while now. Found him on radiowv. Big fan of his stuff! Hope you do some shows around the pacific NW someday, Jake.

[@adamobrien702]

I’ve seen him twice live. Freggin awesome. You have a lot of people rooting for you youngen!!!

[@RCGC01]

He puts hope back into our younger generation for music....so good

[@beznerindustries3057]

I believe colter wall is in his 20s and have you heard logan halstead Hes pretty young too Just released his first album a couple years ago

[@richardmann4006]

@@beznerindustries3057Logan is a great artist too. I’ve been following Colter since he was at these guys levels. Jake will have a hugely successful career.

[@amyburton4717]

Found this young man today! BLEW ME AWAY! Way beyond his years is an understatement. I am instantly in love with this artist!

[@antongoatlord6860]

WOW what an old soul in that young’un. Beautiful darkness wreaking a pleasant stench from every pore & through his fingertips. Luv his passion & humility he exudes in his story. Are children are our future

[@Ybor-ld6uq]

If I’m not my mistaken ,Jackson Browne wrote These Days at 16 or 17. Way beyond his years also. Some people are old souls at at an early age. Great to hear young people singing and playing their hearts out. Great channel Michael.🎶👍

[@kennethsuel672]

He reminds me of another child prodogy. A young Blind Faith live in Hyde Park era Steve Winwood, but more gravely.

[@RR0993]

some kids see some raw shit......it will grow you up quick. Not all parents are the same, innocence is really something.

[@Rudy_86]

His voice is truly phenomenal. First time I heard I was blown away. I did not expect to hear that voice come from that young man.

[@Guitargate]

Yeah! He’s gonna be a guest on a livestream in a week. Stay tuned!

[@sloned]

@@GuitargateThanks for what you do, and timing is perfect. This kid is about to be famous. Can’t wait to see your video with him. You need to look at his friends also. Brennan Edwards and Chris Hunt. Both have put out beautiful performances

[@wheredeyattho]

I love the moments like this when you find something that absolutely blows you away. I can't believe the pipes on this kid and he's only 15 years old. If he stays focused and keeps producing he'll be playing at Red Rocks to a sold out crowd in the very near future.

[@marlalunstrum8518]

Went down the rabbit hole and found a treasure, one with an old soul, no doubt. How else could he possibly know of the life experiences he writes and sings about. He's pretty amazing. Doing my best to get his name out there. ❤️

[@ianfreddy3804]

Emotions are emotions. I don’t care how old an artist is, if you’re feeling it….it’s real. Tension is a real emotion.

[@WeightedReaction]

Been following this kid for a while now, very happy to see him getting some more exposure!!!

[@godimlarge]

Thank you! I’m so glad you reviewed this bc I never would have found this ABSOLUTE GEM on my own. This kid has a future

[@mitchweiner]

He sounds like he’s not done with puberty! He simultaneously has the deep rasp and a crack! I’m fascinated by his style and voice! A young Joe Cocker!

[@missusmac1]

Listened to this SO many times tonight… I love this song.. many thanks from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@stevevanness8274]

Definitely caught me off guard like Colter Wall. Jake for sure gives off old soul vibes. Another great song discovered on your channel & added to the Spotify list.

[@jennymcdermott7921]

He really is an old soul with an incredible voice 🥰

[@brandonschaffer7360]

Well. Another stumbling that takes me where I needed to go. The kid, MAN in the making. His lyrics guarantee that already. But I liked your breakdown, exactly as I thought, but believe you delivered in the end better then I would have. Can't say I was a fan of your intro, but I understand where you were coming from. Nothing but respect, to you BOTH. God bless

[@celinalambeth2182]

Some talent is manufactured and others are born with it, no auto-tune needed.

[@boydbaggarly3361]

You can see the moment you forget you were recording. The fact that Jake drew you in is proof he is a gifted artist.

[@smithwith4]

Dangit!.. I subscribed to ask you to look at Jake Kohn...LOL! Awesome content man!

[@ashleywells9836]

Jake is an amazing artist and person. Thank you for the video! I can assure you, he doesn't smoke. 😂

[@67wing]

I worry for Jake. His songs carry too much sorrow for someone so young

[@ashleywells9836]

@silver birch outdoors he's one of the happiest kids I know. He's just like the rest of us. He likes the sad songs. ❤️

[@67wing]

@@ashleywells9836 thanks for that. He really touches me with his music. I'm glad that its not coming from his real life.

[@jamiecrawford1634]

Nothing wrong with sad songs. We all have those emotions. Kid is dynamite just waiting to blow up. Thank God for some good music. One more Taylor Swift and I would jump from a bridge. lol

[@guitarkyle]

I may not be a very good guitar player but I can sure pick React Requests! 😁 I'm happy to get the word out about this young man, I think he could have a very bright future as a singer/songwriter. I'll end with a fitting quote from a Sturgill Simpson song, "Everything will be fine Long as you stay in school Stay off the hard stuff And keep between the lines" Cheers folks!

[@lannyseals2084]

This young man has a special gift and glad you put in a request to share with us all!

[@AlaskaB83]

Man, when I was 15 I sounded like a squeaky little twerp. What a voice! Best of luck Jake

[@wjamyers]

Jake is just one (albeit the youngest) of Winchester's phenomenal young guns coming up. Check out Brennan Edwards and Chris Huntt Jr.

[@timothymizell8631]

I don’t know what his mom did, but it’s has impacted this young man life to write a song like this.

[@carysimpson4485]

Best reaction for Jake I ever seen brother ❤

[@lemuz37]

Wow, when I come onto this channel, I watch what lessons Michael has to teach, but I love how he didn't pause all that much throughout the vid. I watched this with my mouth hung so wide that a whale could've sailed through, and I don't think I would've noticed. Great analysis vid!

[@atticusbryan]

Never heard this guy before. I love this community

[@likwified]

Jake's ability to tell a story with emotion makes me think of Travis Meadows - Sideways.

[@patmayer7222]

Just heard this last night,,,,...just , , wow......your expression said it all....this artist will move alot of souls..... ,.a new,old tune....wow,,,.........tnx,,,pat,,land o' lakes,wi..

[@richvail7551]

We’ve lost many great musicians to the drink, drugs and smoke. Hopefully Jake knows that he has a bright future ahead and that he can do it without falling into the trappings that has caught too many already. Such a great voice and appears to be a grass roots kind of guy.

[@kdbang413]

Saw this kid in a small bar in southern Ohio last year. It was an amazing performance by a 15 year old! 👍🏽

[@trevormanning5659]

Great video! Another I think you’d enjoy listening too is George William Thomas’s Down the barrel! Incredible song writing/story telling!

[@suzzanahbessette6989]

It is the same place. The channel radiowv showcases some amazing up and coming artists. I subscribed a while ago, and no regrets! He's also wearing a shirt created by another youtube creator, Grady Smith, which is referencing a Tyler Childers lyric. Layers on layers

[@BluesGuitarPlayer001]

I love your guitar! I've been playing 20+ years and still haven't got to play a PRS yet.

[@henryswank]

Thanks for your reaction! Don't think his face was indicative of a hiccup. Close your eyes and hear the music...did it sound like a hiccup? I believe he was not with us, he was the music...pure zone...flow state.

[@asiansplenda]

This *is* the same KZbin channel as the Nolan Taylor song you did ~ a month ago, radiowv. So much great stuff on there!

[@coreinstincts2659]

Whoaaa..four seasons of your life…. Sat back and pondered that one.

[@Guitargate]

Yup.

[@christiecruzxo2841]

Jake your incredible!! You remind me of Joe Cocker mixed with a little bit of Kurt Cobain. I’m excited to hear he will be on a livestream soon. Excellent commentary as well per usual. RadioWV is a GOLDMINE ❤

[@johnjohn37371]

Radiowv is an awesome channel that never fails to deliver the goods...Jake, Nolan Taylor, plus many more....

[@constantian]

The first few phrases sounded like a young Joe Cocker to me. He has the same kind of raspy intensity as Janis Joplin. Singing emotions that ought to be way beyond his years. I make up that there’s part of him that’s in a lot of pain.

[@RedneckRickey]

You gotta here jake kohn hard as stone. Id love to hear your thoughts on it. It’s one of the best songs I’ve heard

[@Fastrip]

Great recommendation, hard as stone was awesome. Thanks alot!

[@haroldfarquad6886]

1:11 - yeahhh... I think that's just about the reaction everyone has on the first listen. It was definitely my reaction... just disbelief and shock that that sound came out of a 15 year old kid. Unbelievable.

[@whereyoufindus]

He’s like a combo of old (SRV) and new (lead singer of Kaleo) Awesome stuff

[@tekvax01]

he is another Coulter Wall! Damn! that voice!! 15 going on 85 years old!

[@tiacalhoun3841]

He doesn’t smoke but his lyrics are so mature and his songwriting ability is impeccable!!!!!

[@matthewdavis7660]

Nice kid. Just saw him again in Louisville, KY. His mom is his merch person :). Listen to him now before he blows up!

[@boydbaggarly3361]

Also, I'm from the same town he is. Where we are from smoking and drinking comes early.. broken homes and broken bones, my friends. Grow up fast around here.

[@Seneca_creek]

For a while it seemed like every artist I grew to like came from Kentucky, lately it seems like they come from West Virginia. Jake is good!

[@petebogaards]

Amazing old soul!!!!!!

[@heinodippenaar]

goosebumps, goosebumps. f@ck what a voice

[@RTLeewaters]

The next generation is great, keep the faith

[@delisamarchetti5926]

Really love your channel, I stumbled on the video you did with Tori Amos today and then came back and subscribed to your channel, I look forward to seeing more. There is so much really great music that has been forgotten and undiscovered. My favorite performer of all times is Dan Fogelberg. I think you would really enjoy both his guitar and piano playing and his amazing lyrics. I first saw him perform in 1979 and was mesmerized in the same way you were with Tori Amos. It was a profound feeling as if he was playing out his very heart to the audience. I went back to see him many times and watching him was one of the top experiences of my life. He passed away a few years ago and sadly he is all but forgotten. The stuff he had on the radio was good but it was his albums. taken as a whole that blows you away. I miss so much that experience of getting to see a performer unfold before your eyes on an album, trying different things and having the freedom to experiment, with 12 minute guitar solos. I really appreciate your passion for the nuances of the music, you may not realize it, but it is a rare quality. Have a great day ahead!.

[@Guitargate]

Yes!!! Hit Me with a track.

[@delisamarchetti5926]

@@Guitargate Wow so many to choose from! I kind of seized up trying to think which one to share.

Reminds me of when Jonny Lang first came out…..he had soul and a voice well beyond his years

[@johnhendricks8140]

I get the Jonny Lang comparison he sounded like he was older than he was.

[@stevefrederick9748]

So did I! Miss listing to Johnny with my mom as loud as we could!!!!

[@petebogaards]

So true

[@tidalboxer]

I just subscribed because of the Tori Amos video. Please do more reaction to live performances. I’d recommend Tori Amos - Sessions At West 54th 1998 and MTV Unplugged. Both are UH MAY ZING.

[@roykilgore8461]

He SOUNDS LIKE what they wrote the Blues about - BORN WITH A BROKEN HEART 💔

[@judecarpenter2990]

Know jake personally. Great guy. Very humble. Awkward. All that. But genuinely a nice kid

[@Justin_Dykes]

WOW.....I'm not sure what else you can say..... But wow!!!!

[@JNathanielBerke]

when I was 15 I was still collecting Star Wars action figures

[@shlawson]

Chills, he's really good. It's his personna dude. He's not drinking and smoking at that age I wouldn't think. He's awesome. He has a gift that alot doesn't.

[@Deyan_B_Travels]

This kind of talents should never go to talents shows! It's a recipe for fading away after producers polish you into everybody else.

[@grahamhume8135]

I love how the Song and Jake stopped you in your tracks and lesson and you just listened, love it!

[@scottg77r]

I love this song. Great artist.

[@SharekGadd]

Hell brother, I started drinking at ten when my brothers were dying. Two sisters died previously. Life's hard for lots of people all over the world; if it's not, you're likely an oddity.

[@138NastyNate]

Kid is good dont get me wrong.....But I want to hear him 3 or 4 yrs down the road once he learns how to control that voice more. He is good, but if he keeps at it he will be great.

[@StephenLewisful]

I totally agree. He's going to be fun to watch grow into even more maturity.

[@lomig7800]

Idem !!! He is young, He will be better with years and miles 😍

[@Yamahut13]

Like how Colter Wall did and really learned to control his voice better

[@jetdecorating5503]

I thought that about colter wall. His voice has matured so much over time. Looking to forward to see this young man develop into his voice.

[@dubbs1218]

As long as he doesn’t lose his soul. I hope if someone tries to help that they just make what he does now better but don’t change the feel he has.

[@facaalvarez]

came to see the reaction to when he started singing.. wasnt dissapointed.... "no.. no way" that pretty much sums it up

[@knowconcessionssessions]

We sat down with Jake on our podcast a few times. It’s Jake Kohn as in Cone.

[@mireillelibert3910]

Génial ce petit gars

He might be kind of, channeling a character in this,it may not be his own experience Michael, right??

[@dixiestilwell]

He legit writes these songs in less than 10mins,the death of his words 😢

[@FrankyChristianJr]

That initial “no way” is exactly how I reacted

[@judecarpenter2990]

Stephens City VA. Sherando high School. Winchester VA it's our boy

[@Itdontmatter69]

Definitely different. Id listen to him

[@helangel7]

Just because you feel he hasn’t lived doesn’t mean so … kids are faaaar beyond where you think they’ve come from, been through and are going. - Oh and you don’t necessarily have to have had a smoke, drink and “ride a Greyhound bus” to know the feelings and effects. And just by the way he sings … he has definitely loved … probably even more than you and I put together. But none of that is for YOU or any of us to judge … just let the boy and the man inside sing.

[@Conflic7]

Can someone tell me what kinda genre this type of music would be? It's some of my favorite kind of music but i never know what to classify it as

[@tylerpope8635]

That’s what you call an old soul

[@natehoover5266]

Did he write this? I thought I heard someone else do it. I've definitely heard it before.

[@chester82gtstang]

I feel like the facial expression was his shock at the quality of the vocal run. Hoping he's just an amazing lyricist and hasn't had to endure what he's singing about.

[@musicman4926]

I don't know how this video came into my feed, So I don't know much about you. But i know about Jake Kohn. You have to know of the term "A Old Soul", which means this person may have lived a previous life... I believe Jake is an Old Soul.

[@jasonkeating6641]

He is from about an hour west where I grew up in va and just found about him.

Please explain UFO try me...to me...and tell me if that is not the most beautiful guitar solo ever!

[@jonathangibson9137]

Kinda getting Joe Cocker vibes too. Amazing ✌️

[@ronschaffer5959]

He has the kind of style/delivery that people will either love or be turned off by: an expressive delivery a la John Mayer. Sometimes it can make the viewer focus more on his facial expressions thatn the music itself. Apparently, that was the case for Johannes Brahms back in the day as well.

[@Eric777-71]

Got my beautiful Strat in my hands 🎸

[@seanobrien648]

His voice town reminds me of Jason Ross from seven Mary three

[@treeman5263]

How how how no way that’s his voice at 15 😮. I am in complete shock.

Imagine the music when he gets his heart really broken.
