Jake Smolowe

Welcome to the official website of San Francisco Bay Area jazz pianist, composer and piano teacher Jake Smolowe. Take a look around, put on some music and make sure to join the email list!

For piano students or prospective students – or for anyone interested in learning more about the piano – be sure to check out my Lessons page, which has several tutorials on harmony and comping.

My new Christmas album, “Christmas Solo: Informal, Improvised,” is now available for purchase on Bandcamp! You can watch YouTube videos of the tracks below; then head over to Bandcamp and click Buy Digital Album to get the track for yourself (and/or gift the album to a friend/loved one)! You can also stream the album on Spotify or Apple Music.
