Jacob Collier - Live In Lisbon pre-show Q&A 

I’m an 81 year old lady who thinks are just amazing. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. You are blessing to this world. God bless 🙏 penny

That 'I can hear you' made me smile so wide. Thank you for this, Jacob.

Music is my therapy . Thanks for the music Jacob 🎸🎼🎻🎹🪕🥁🎉

You're a gifted person who has led a gifted life. What a great combination. Optimum nature meets optimum nurture. It's so great to hear and see you playing with other musicians, and even sometimes handing everything over to them. We're starting to hear your developing wisdom inhabit your innate and astonishing genius. I hope I stay alive long enough to watch and listen to you continue to grow and develop over the many years I'm sure we all hope you still have left in you.

It was very generous of you to allow us to see the whole Lisbon event. It was a fabulous concert and I enjoyed watching it for the full two hours+. Keep pushing the boundaries.

I’m a 73 yr old violin teacher. Thanks for sharing your gifts. You inspire me. You are the best, and seem so humble about it. God bless and keep you!

You are so nice you're such a beautiful soul Jacob you deserve an Olivia O’brien, God bless u

You are an incredible inspiration . I shared Little Blue yesterday for my wife who needed to have an operation today . Thanks for the Beautiful rendition of the song

Thank you Jacob for the love 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🥹

Just catching this!! We WILL see you in Nashville on June 2, 2024. JUST got tickets TODAY. Thanks for all the inspiration. Blessings. Carl & Leann.

Jacob, I love the wonder in your music. I will get to see you soon. Question... Would you ever write for another medium such as brass band. I play in a band and feel your harmonies would open players and audiences to a new experience.

I’m thrilled to have just bought 2 tickets for your show in Miami 2024! I’m having a wonderful day I hope you’re doing well also

Thank you Jacob for sharing 🙏🏼💗🎼☀️

Got me and my wife tickets for when you’re in Miami! We are from Orlando. You’re a huge inspiration to us creatives that are bouncing between the walls in our heads. You’re music is a true representation of the human experience. Massive energies heading your way! 🙌🏻 good luck on your tour out there! Universe is on the way. “Artificial Future band” We plan to be keeping up the cosmos 🧹 🎶 🌌 one note at a time!

Loving your work Jacob, been a huge fan since 2019.

🎶❤️🎶 Funtabulous to see n hear you, you bring extraordinary colour and harmony to our ears 🙏🎶

Perfect folk song choice 💚 The blooming Heather are akin to the mountain thyme. Enduring, colorful, wasteland flowers that grow where no other delicate flowers dare go.

This was moving, thank you Jacob!!!

Thank you so so much for answering my question Jacob and for giving such eloquent and great advice. I'm taking jazz piano lessons currently, and your advice on improvisation has already helped me improve. You are so wonderful and such a blessing to all of us. Thank you! So much love ❤🎹 -Cynthia

8:55 you have me crying in three notes. 😢

I m still sitting still hearing all the voices, feeling the waves…. THANK YOU SO MUCH ❤❤❤

This world needs more improv in our world - as you say!

This Little Blue was SO beautiful!!

Love Love Love your music and the intimate relationship you have with music. Your instinctual approach along with knowledge and skill is magical and activating to the energy fields of anyone within hearing distance! I doubt I can even begin to comprehend your knowledge but thank you, Jacob! Did you know that the entire creation is energy that makes music? Yah, you probably did. Peace, Joy and Love to all!

What do you like to do musically when you are alone and there is nobody listening?

Yes, see you well

Don't let the entertainment industry take away your spirit of goodness.❤❤❤🙏

I’m Victor from Nigeria ..I missed this section ….you have been my mentor for the past 4years ..I wish I could meet you someday….I want to know the concept of your chords like the harmonies used when playing the piano…thanks 🫶

Germany ! great thank you

First of all: you are amazing! I was so sorry not to be able to attend the concert in Lucca. How was the Italian welcome? From Italy with ❤

Jacob in the future you need to put the chat on slow mo so you can read it easier. It is a setting on your end for the live stream.

14:53 Bb 11 add flat 9 over B in the bass to Eb/Bb 😊

hi jacob. i'm glad you going to go jakarta next november 2023

Hey, from Maryland, USA!

Little blue is just a fantastic song :)

Hiiiii yes I see you ❤

Sorry I missed the live stream. You are the cats meow!

Ok, hi from Italy

16:26 why are you so good at even this sound

Hi from Argentina

The sheer speed of the questions in the stream was…horrifying. It was like a lottery

Hi Jacob! I'm doing pretty good, tired, like a lot of musicians lol

Portugal!

Cruuuuuuusssshhh

Selamat datang di Indonesia, dan semoga lancar konser nya di JI-Expo convention teater.👍

Hoping to see you in Bahrain someday

@Jacob what are your thoughts about the Lumatone microtonal keyboard 🎹 and the Seaboard by roli, and Janko keys for micro tones?

Open the chat!

That guy can even make an airplane seat belt sign sound good.

when will you tour again in Germany again ??

Jacob mañana venite al studio de mi hermano a la 1:30 pm te esperamos en Honduras bro , dale.

Newcastle

15:07 regarding the name of the chord I guess it could be called a Abmadd#11/Cb to indicate it has both the fifth and the #11. Also to indicate that the #11, d, has that gravity towards eb in the following tonic Eb/g chord (even though the eb already is there on the Abm chord) Maybe as an alternative it could be written as a polychord like EbMaj7|Abm/cb

Hello!!!

Jacob’s right hand guitar technique is surprisingly reminiscent of right hand lute technique 🤔 I dig it

Love the Hair Man. Who is Your Designer? :)

Deciding on the spot which song and which key to choose for an improvisation… 🤪

My 14yo is a budding composer and huge fan. Any advice for someone starting out? BTW got tix for San Diego show for him for Xmas. Shhh :)

I’m in Yorkshire now

I missed the live and i'm REALLY upset about it.

🦋🦋🦋🦋👁️💗

My question: Do you plan a new concert in Valencia, Spain at any time?

Would it be interesting for You to improvise not only with musicians on stage, but with painter ? :)

You are so talented ❤

WHY ARENT YOU COMING TO VANCOUVER!? 🇨🇦

Hello

Siema Jakub!

Who was the first concert you saw, mine was The Beatles (yes I’m older😂)

I wanna perform eith you in Lisboa ok

Tough day

Ahh, you're wearing your Blue Note hoodie 🎉

That EbMaj7/B chord is better labeled as "Overjoyed in a bottle."

14:30

It's just a Jacob special :), a skintingle chord

but unfortunately, i couldn't go at that time. because i have to work ;(

Germany, doing really good, reallygood 😂
