jacobs run – ‘Sleepwalking’

Melbourne Australia band, jacobs run comprises Michael Jacobs, Fabian Bucci, and Peter Curigliano. The trio have played in bands together for a number of years and it’s this which has led them to craft their self-assured and polished sound, showcasing their mastery of songwriting and orchestration. ‘Sleepwalking’, their latest single, shows to perfection their message as a band, who set out to create music for people who believe in the power of rock and roll to be uplifting, intelligent, and have a substantial meaning.


The video for ‘Sleepwalking’ opens with a underwater images while frontman Jacob tells the story of a man stuck in his head, overthinking conversations with a former lover. It’s got a really James Bond vibe and a foot stomping beat and catchy melodies. The clip is shot by Scott Kingman, and flashes between dreamy images and Jacob’s ruminations. The band’s classical influences come shining through and all combined go to the listener/viewer immediately wanting to experience it all over again.
