Fresh off the back of “Don’t Forget”, Jake Carter dropped his latest single ‘What Is Love?” yesterday, May 13th, taken from his EP ‘Point Of You’ out now.
Pure pop perfection, What is Love is a pop ballad co-written by Jake with fellow musicians, Chloe Agnew, Megan O’Neill and Mark Caplice.
Speaking about the single Jake Carter said “this is one of my favourite tracks of the EP, and I really enjoyed the process of writing and producing something a little bit more serious.”
Jake Carter released his five – track EP “Point of You” this Spring, featuring the heart-warming and uplifting singles, Loved Me Like You Do, Milk and Honey and Don’t Forget produced by long-time collaborator Richey McCourt. Point of You is pure pop, it’s Jake being his authentic wonderful self, layering his musical attributes into this EP. He is inviting you in to enjoy the ride!
Speaking about the EP Jake Carter says; “I am so excited to eventually get this body of music out into the world. I have been working on these tracks for the last number of years with Dublin producer, Richey McCourt, and I really feel that we have ‘found my sound’ with these tracks. The EP is a collection of my favourite songs that I have wrote over the last few years with a mixture of Irish Singer Songwriters, and if I was to describe the sound of this album, it would be a mixture of acts like McFly and Take That, acts that I loved listening to growing up, mixed with the current pop sounds of the like of Tom Grennan and Harry Styles”.
Liverpool born but Dublin based, Jake Carter, still only 25, has already made a name for himself in the world of creative arts through his victory on Dancing With The Stars as well as acting roles in a number of stage shows. While he enjoys the idea of continuing to bring that triple threat of acting, dancing and singing, music is Jake’s first love. The 25-year old is now seeking to firmly establish himself as a pop star in the mould of Harry Styles and Tom Grennan and to create music that reflects who he really is and not who people think he should be.
Jake Carter has plenty more songs in the pipeline and looks set to build upon the success he’s had so far and make a name for himself in the music industry. With over 600k total streams on Spotify as well as 500k+ views on his YouTube channel, combined with appearances on The Ray D’Arcy Show and The Late Late Show, Virgin Media shows at Vicar Street and Cork Opera House as well as radio slots on Today FM, 2FM, Spin1038 and more, the future’s looking bright.
