Jacob Brodovsky is a singer-songwriter from Winnipeg, Manitoba Treaty One Territory. He writes songs about feelings, the people who have them, the places that create them, and the fears we have about them. In the tradition of other prairie songwriters, Jacob’s songs are humble yet intricate, and as humorous as they are heartbreaking.

Jacob won the 2024 Canadian Folk Music Award for English Songwriter of the Year, has toured Canada and Europe many times, and recently has landed supporting slots for other Canadian artists such as MOONRIIVR and The Weather Station. He has collaborated with artists such as Charlotte Cornfield, Boy Golden, John K Samson Fellows, Campbell Woods, Old Man Luedecke, Ellen Froese, Sierra Noble, Roman Clarke, Madeleine Roger, Slow Spirit, The Funky Miracles, and Dominique Adams.
