Phil Jacobs is an English-born, Canadian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose musical journey began at age 13, the moment he first heard Eddie Van Halen. That spark led him to pick up his first electric guitar — a pink Fender Heavy Metal Strat — and set him on a lifelong path of sound, expression, and authenticity.

Now in his early 50s, he has returned to music with renewed passion, depth, and purpose — and an unmistakable sense of gratitude.  

Since settling in the Chatham-Kent area, he has immersed himself in the local arts community through song circles and regular performances at the former Good Days Café, and now Crow City Coffee in Chatham. 

In recent years, Phil has reignited his career with a powerful wave of momentum, performing at venues such as Cove’s Landing, Dock & Vine, Glass Town Brewing Co., The Garden On King, The Garden Event Centre, Crow City Coffee Sons of Kent Brewing Co., Bayside Brewing Co., Roots & Revival Festival, Good Days Café, The Fortress, The Bank Theatre, Goat Tree Coffee, Tilbury Golf Club, Grog's Bar & Grill, Legion Br #243, Chuck's Roadhouse, Wild Wings Roadhouse, Jazz Bah, The Village and Wallaceburg Retirement Homes, along with numerous private events, birthday parties, anniversaries, celebrations of life, and corporate fundraising events. 

New places I haven’t played but am booked upcoming are Rondos Pizza, Sherwood Restaurant, Actors Casual Dining, Cosmos Café, Black Gold Brewery.

His solo act has flourished, and he is now assembling a new three-piece band focused on his original music — paired with familiar songs reimagined through his soulful, guitar-driven style. 

His influences span decades and genres: Eddie Van Halen, Angus Young, Clark Terry, Clifford Brown, and many others who’ve shaped his eclectic approach to melody, tone, rhythm, and improvisation. 

Phil is currently releasing a catalogue of original songs written and recorded over the past 25 years on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and all major streaming platforms. His sound blends soulful storytelling, guitar-forward expression, and an unmistakable authenticity — the hallmark of an artist who has lived, learned, returned, and evolved.
