Jacques Labouchere is unquestionably a pioneer of true Americana in Scandinavia. His work ethic combined with an impressive body of live performances set him apart from his indie contemporaries. Perhaps more poignantly his empathetic songwriting of heart-wrenching and compassionate life-stories mark him as the last of a dying breed of artists in the current music industry where a photo of someone is worth more than a musician reaching out to connect emotionally with his audience. Jacques can confidently claim to have done the latter.
