Jacob Merrithew began writing what would become his major release ‘988,’ several years ago while navigating his own battles with mental health.
‘988’ features a calming piano arrangement and emotional lyrics that reveal Jacob Merrithew’s darkest and saddest moments, as the composition and production of the track are at opposite ends of the spectrum in regards to the overall mood.
Having successfully overcome those personal challenges, he now uses his platform to act as a voice of hope, aiming to reach those who feel they are “too far gone” and reminding them that recovery is possible.
His work is designed to bring peace to his younger self while fostering a community where looking out for one another is the standard.
