Jake Novak

Hailing from Childress, Texas, singer–songwriter Jake Novak is carving out a distinct space in modern alternative music with a sound that blends raw emotional storytelling, Texas-born grit, and cinematic production. His 2025 EP, Begend, marks a bold new chapter—an atmospheric, lyrically rich project that showcases Novak’s evolution as both a writer and producer.
Raised in a small High Plains town, Jake’s musical roots came from a mix of singer-songwriter-folk , classic rock, and the independent DIY ethos of modern alt-pop. What sets him apart is the balance between heartfelt vulnerability and full-throttle energy—songs that feel equally at home on a festival stage or in the middle of a 2 a.m. drive.
With Begend, Novak dives deeper into themes of identity, consequence, redemption, and the strange mythology of living in the contemporary reailty. The EP’s layered arrangements, melodic hooks, and textured vocals reveal an artist who is not only finding his voice but defining it with intention of exploration.
