Neil Jacobson is an independent recording artist, guitarist, singer-songwriter, and composer based in New York City. Since 2018, he has released eight original studio albums and a growing catalog of singles, establishing himself as one of the most prolific musicians in the alternative genre.
 
 
A native of Oceanside, New York, Neil began playing folk guitar as a child before expanding into rock and alternative styles. He pursued formal music education at Shenandoah University in Virginia and later at the Manhattan School of Music in New York City, where he studied composition, arrangement, and performance.
After completing his education, Neil performed in venues across Manhattan and the broader NYC area. He collaborated with keyboardist Peter Schott, writing music for television commercials and developing animated series, including The Bugs, Frik & Frak, and Deadbeats.
His solo recording career launched with New York Fool in 2018, an album capturing the contradictions and energy of New York City. Since then, he has released Human Nature (2019), Water (2020), Sliver Park (2021), For Sale (2021), Typo (2022), The New Math (2023), The Atomic Robot (2024), and The Black & White Singles (2025-26). Recent singles include AI, Run!, I Want a Bad Habit, Easy Daymorra, It's Legal Now, and The Magic Devil Box.
 
 
Neil's music ranges freely with innovation in the alternative style—guitar-driven melody and thoughtful lyrics of substance. His albums explore themes such as urban life, consumerism, environmentalism, emotional resilience, and the paradoxes of modern existence.
