Archive material and source history
Jacob is a Filipino band formed around vocalist and guitarist Jacob Benedicto, with Jayson Jasme on guitar, John Paolo Romarate on bass, and Ian De Guzman on drums. They released their EP 'Naghihintay' in 2021, followed by singles like 'Sana' and 'Kasalanan' in 2022, and 'Huling Gabi' in 2023.
Their song 'Naghihintay' became their most recognizable track, a ballad that connected with listeners through its themes of waiting and longing. The band's music tends toward introspective lyrics and melodic arrangements.
Early on, Jacob faced some financial limitations and limited opportunities as they were getting started. Their melancholic style also drew some criticism from those who felt it played too heavily on Filipino emotional sensibilities, though the band maintained their approach was meant to provide listeners with a sense of catharsis.
