Jacob Collier and dodie have joined forces for a unique version of The Beatles’ “Here Comes The Sun,” which is released and features on Collier’s forthcoming album Djesse – Volume 2, out on June 28th (Hajanga Records in exclusive license to Decca/Geffen). Djesse is a wildly ambitious project of 40+ songs that Collier is unveiling over 4 volumes across the next several months. Djesse – Volume 1 was released in December.

The video for “Here Comes The Sun” was a completely DIY affair; directed, edited and filmed by Jacob and dodie themselves in North London.



Jacob and dodie are kindred spirits – both young U.K. musicians and songwriters that exploded on YouTube, millions of fans coming into their singular musical world.

Djesse – Volume 2 finds Jacob continuing his exploration of any and all sonic arrangements, here focusing on the intimacy and closeness of acoustic music. It will feature a number of collaborators including dodie and Lianne La Havas, Oumou Sangaré, MARO, Sam Amidon, Kathryn Tickell and Becca Stevens, with more to be announced.

Collier recently announced Djesse – Volume 2 with a new original song, entitled “Make Me Cry,” in the form of an immersive 360 virtual reality video.

Jacob recorded the majority of Djesse - Volume 2 in his home studio/childhood bedroom in London – performing, producing, engineering and composing everything himself.

Jacob released Djesse – Volume 1 in December followed by his first-ever full band tour, playing sold out shows across Europe and the U.S. Watch a highlights video of the winter 2019 tour here: https://youtu.be/m56mYgDkvSw.
