Jake Davey—

Bursting with big drums and an infectious country-pop chorus intended to be sung at full volume, Jake Davey’s new single Wildside arrives alongside Jake’s six-track EP, Right Where I’m At.

Co-written in Nashville with Jackson James and David Evans, the track celebrates the one person in every group who can turn a good night into a great one. “It’s that girl who’s always up for a good time,” explains Jake. “The life of the party who, after one drink, is ready to send it and let that wild side come out. I wanted the song to feel as energetic and infectious as the character it’s about, so sonically I leaned into a modern country-pop sound with a big, polished production that still feels organic.”

That energy makes Wildside a natural doorway into Right Where I’m At, an EP that captures Jake at a pivotal point both personally and creatively. Across its six tracks, he moves between feel-good country-pop, more traditional country influences and vulnerable ruminations on relationships, family, growing older and making the most of the time you have.

In 2023, Jake suffered a life-changing spinal cord injury and was told he may never walk again. Music became an important part of his recovery as he fought his way back to walking, eventually returning to the stage, writing and recording. Three years later, he found himself performing his own songs in Nashville.
