Big Rude Jake: Music & Memories

Larger than life: Jake Hiebert created music with the singular purpose of inspiring delight and connection.

A poet, songwriter & blues shouter, he was at once a comic and solemn apostle of gritty veritas, especially drawn to the roots of American music.
Folks celebrate Jake's lyrics, stories and nifty fingerpicking guitar style. With diverse tastes and interests, he's written a song for everyone.
A history buff and hard-working family man, Jake passed away in 2022.

His wife and child nurture Jake's legacy with an incredible community of devoted friends and fans around the world.
An album (The Jackhammer Sessions) and a book of poetry (A Hard Night For Dreamers) were in the works. And we all want that "lost" album redistributed. Your support helps us to keep his website up and running, etc. Things like that.  

Thank you. Stay in touch.
