    Cris Jacobs | From The Bridge to The 8x10 & Everything in Between

    🎸 EPISODE 80 — CRIS JACOBS! 80 episodes in, and we couldn't have asked for a better guest to celebrate this one with! Baltimore's own Cris Jacobs joined us in the Lounge for a great conversation and five songs recorded live in the studio, including two unreleased songs from his upcoming album! Cris is a local legend who's been part of the Baltimore music scene for over 20 years. We talked about how he got his start, the early days of The Bridge, the band's success, and how he went on to build his solo career. We also got into his music over the years, including working with some pretty big names, and what he's been working on lately. Of course, we spent some time talking about The 8x10, a venue that played a huge part in Cris's career. Now he's part of the group that owns it! We talked about how that happened, why the place means so much to him, and what people can expect from this next chapter of one of Baltimore's best-known music venues. And the music? Five songs performed live in the Lounge, with two that haven't even been released yet. We're pretty proud to have Cris as our 80th episode. He's been a big part of Baltimore music for a long time, and it was great having him in the studio. Episode 80 is available now on YouTube, Spotify, and all podcast platforms.
