My Take
I have a soft spot for craftsmen who work behind the scenes, and Kyle Jacobs was exactly that. From Bloomington, Minnesota, he spent two decades as a staff writer at Curb Music, quietly building country songs at the piano and guitar from 2003 until his death in 2023. Being a vocalist, guitarist, pianist and composer all at once, yet pouring it into the single goal of leaving good songs behind, strikes me as deeply respectable. The spotlight usually lands on the singer, but I think the writer who shapes the melody deserves just as much gratitude. His loss at only 49 feels genuinely sad.
