Discover Jacob Whitesides - The new teen idol from the US @ Trix Antwerpen

Singer/songwriter Jacob Whitesides was an underdog fighter from the start. Jacob and his sister were raised in humble upbringings by his strong, selfless mother Becky, in the smoky mountains outside of Knoxville, Tennessee.

After learning guitar at a young age and honing in on his vocal skills, Jacob started winning over the Youtube community with his cover videos and, soon after, his original songs. Jacob’s undeniable talent, entrepreneurial

skills, along with a genuinely devoted dialogue with his zealous fan base (aka Whitesiders), have led him to an unprecedented independent success.

His fans are deeply engaged, frequently selling out VIP upgrades for the chance to spend quality time with Jacob. Jacob’s impressive social media numbers continue to grow organically around the globe (1.6 mill Twitter followers, 1.3 mill Facebook likes, 950K Instagram followers, 306K Youtubesubscribers). His international fan base spans beyond North America to everywhere from the Philippines to Portugal, Scandinavia to South America, UK to Lebanon, Europe to Australasia, and more.

Currently, he is gearing up to head out on his first ever European tour this May (Copenhagen, Hamburg, Amsterdam, Cologne, Paris, Antwerp, London) with all dates selling out and London and Paris declared SOLD OUT in only 8 minutes. Later this summer (July-August), Jacob will tour all over North America with AEG Live Presents R5 “Sometime Last Night” tour including prestigious venues like The Greek Theater in LA.
