David W. Jacobsen

"Footprints will leave listeners dazed and confused, happy and sad, laughing and crying all at the same time. With influences ranging from Bob Dylan to The Cure, Jacobsen's sound lies along the acoustic-folk genre, with a few songs featuring keyboards and synth."

"He has a distinct vision on everyday events and knows to translate these into songs ... a first class songwriter! He sometimes reminded me of Morrissey or The Tragically Hip when I listened to his choice of words and phrases. And that is definitely a compliment."

"Cubicles is a smart, comical and angry look at life in the aforementioned work space. A cross between Dilbert and Office Space, it takes on the doldrums and sheer meaningless world of modern office workers." - — Stefan Stanza, Queens College Knight News

"Footprints is a comical odyssey through life, love, work and obsession executed through bare bones acoustic and lighthearted pop."

"Experiencing David W. Jacobsen is not the usual relationship between a listener and an entertainer ... Jacobsen's practiced introspection has produced a world view that is uniquely his, but one in which we see glimpses of ourselves."

"He conveys deep emotions through his intelligent, clever lyrics; if you have a soul, you can't help but connect with the loneliness and isolation of his music. It makes you feel just a little bit less alone."

"He just needs to keep writing good songs filled with all the humor and tragedy of life."

"Anyone who spends 40 hours a week in office purgatory will relate to the lyrics of the first eight songs of this CD."

"Cubicle in the Sky" captures the essence of a crappy job that pays you just enough to make it difficult to leave ... Jacobsen uses humor to deliver his keen, often biting observations."

"A performance by Mr. Jacobsen can feature a little bit of everything. You can tell from listening to Footprints, which runs the gamut from sarcasm to Shakespeare, that he likes to mix things up."
