Inspired by the likes of Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark, James McMurtry, John Prine and Lucinda Williams, Ybarra’s evocative, emotional lyrics display a hard-won wisdom that belies an old soul in a youn man’s body. The characters in his stories invite comparisons not only to his songwriting heroes but also to his favorite authors. Armed with the heartfelt tales on Something In The Water, Jake Ybarra is bending ears and pulling on heartstrings wherever he plays.
