Jacob Dinesen's music career started a decade ago when he received his first guitar for Christmas. Drawing inspiration from Bruce Springsteen, Allan Taylor, Frank Zappa, Van Morrison and Dougie Maclean, the young songwriter's musical style is firmly seated in the folk and rock genre.

Jacob Dinesen – Dancing Devil
Label: Reorecords
Appears on: DALI CD Vol. 5
"Dancing Devil is my lovable monster. At least that is what I call it. It’s a song I have always dreamed of re-recording because it's constantly evolving in my mind.
When you write and record a song, there is the temptation to look at it as a closed and finished project. But, in fact, it's a song I’m still working on seven years after I recorded it. I’m still changing the lyrics, still revising the chords and the arrangement. It's a song that is never finished to me.
That’s why it was a great opportunity to revisit it for the DALI CD/LP. I hope you all like it and I'm very excited to hear what it sounds like in another seven years," says Dinesen.
