Harrison Goodell and Jake Swamp & The Pine

Hailing from seacoast New Hampshire, singer-songwriter Harrison Goodell was raised on American staples like Tom Petty, Paul Simon, and Billy Joel who serve as inspiration to his own sound. Their same troubadour essence is carried into his songwriting as he portrays vulnerable stories from his life and relationships. Harrison uses his songwriting as a window into his subconscious; a bridge to his intuition and honesty. Harrison’s obsessive dedication to music and pure grit lead him to his biggest achievements to date including his run on ABC’s American Idol and opening for Grammy-nominated artist JP Saxe in Burlington, VT. Harrison’s recent success has connected him to a dedicated New England audience who continue to sell out venues. With his passion for creating music that resonates with his followers, Harrison is establishing himself as an artist to watch in the industry.

Jake Swamp and the Pine songs range from powerful acoustic anthems to knee-slapping hoedowns to slow and somber waltzes, drawing on diverse influences from the Americana, folk, singer-songwriter, bluegrass, and jam band traditions. With a collection of original songs and covers of artists, there’s always something to stomp, clap, or holler along to. Country 102.5 said “Jake Swamp and the Pine was born to be heard live. You can feel the emotion in his guitar, and his vocals take you on winding journey, up and around bends of inflection. There’s sheer joy that resounds in the making of his craft. You can get all that just from listening to one song.”
