Now that we’ve come to an end on the acoustic cover song series for 2021, I thought it might be fun to revisit all the songs that I fumbled my way through for ya through the year.

To celebrate the release of Jestem Krzywym Lasem, I ran a very limited run of CD’s. Like, very limited.

Today brings us to track 3 on Jestem Krzywym Lasem, here’s our breakdown of “Without You”. I’ve spoken a bit about “Without You” before, even sharing a snap from when and where it was written back in December 2020. I had actually woken up one morning and some of the lyrics started swirling around my head as I worked up the strength to get out … Continue reading Jestem Krzywym Lasem Track by Track: Without You
Continuing our crusade through Jesyem Krzywym Lasem from the previous overview post, here’s our track by track breakdown of the first song on the record, “Quiksand”. Quiksand was the first song I wrote that I realized pretty quickly it didn’t quite fit in with all the other songs I was working on at the time.

Following up on our blog about Jestem Krzywym Lasem, here’s our track by track breakdown of the first single from the record, track 2’s “Driveway”. “Driveway” was really the catalyst for deciding that I needed to branch away from (ha!) the Crooked Forest name for this EP and put it out under my given name. But knowing full well that this was just another piece … Continue reading Jestem Krzywym Lasem Track By Track: Driveway
This is a multi-series blog post. Table of Contents at the bottom of the page. Yesterday I announced the release date of my upcoming EP, “Jestem Krzywym Lasem” which is the debut solo EP I’m presenting as myself, Jaimee Jakobczak. Now, if you’ve frequented these trails before you might be saying, “but Jaimee, you’ve released like, 4 other EP’s already as a solo artist” and … Continue reading What’s “Jestem Krzywym Lasem” All About Anyways?
Late last week I finished mixing my new EP, “Jestem Krzywym Lasem” and almost just as quickly, I got it up and ready to go on all those digital streaming platforms you all use to listen to rad tunes (thanks Distrokid for making this processes insanely easy). It’s an acoustic based EP, just guitar and vocals, and we landed on 4 original songs and 1 … Continue reading EP Release: “Jestem Krzywym Lasem” Coming October 29th 2021
The first cover song in the Jaimee Eat World exclusive discography is officially here, and, bonus, it came with a music video! We spoke pretty in depth about this song and its significance to us in an earlier blog post when we did the acoustic cover tracking of it back in July 2021, so for the sake of not bogging you down with the same … Continue reading Jaimee Eat World Release: Hear You Me

I wasn’t necessarily planning to cover this song, nor do a 3 part take series of it, but here we are. I was actually just going to omit this acoustic cover entirely and focus only on the full-band version of this song as part of the Jaimee Eat World exclusive discography set, but every time I sucker out and skip a song on my Observatory … Continue reading “A Praise Chorus” Cover Song Series
