The Artist
Jaykob Matteo is a guitarist, songwriter, and touring musician. He has spent years on the road as a professional touring guitarist and guitar tech, logging stages across the US, UK, and Europe with a reputation for being exactly who you want beside you on tour — professional, dedicated, and a genuinely good hang.
In 2024, facing the weight of being the sole provider for his family — his partner, her son, and their newborn daughter — Jaykob made the difficult decision to step off the road and accept a stable career in coffee roasting. He bought a house. He was there for his daughter's first year. He showed up. Then, without warning, the company announced it was selling the division and his team would cease to exist.
The guitar never left. It never does. For Jaykob it isn't just an instrument — it's the clearest picture of who he is. As much as he loves his family without condition, that's how deep the music runs. He's back, looking for the next road, the next band, the next stage. Any band would be lucky to have him.
He is available for touring and guitar tech opportunities.
