My Long Boring Life Story

Stephen Jacobs (Born 03 February 1997) from Pretoria, South Africa, is a multi-instrumentalist performer, actor, writer, editor and overall creative jack of all trades that does freelance work for the film and music industries.

At the age of 11, Jacobs taught himself how to play the drums with help from a few books and youtube videos. A year later he realized that he wanted to learn more than just drums and started to learn how to play other instruments such as bass and guitar. When Jacobs wasn't in front of the camera he was practicing his instruments. By the time Jacobs turned 16 he had written tons of his own songs and mastered the basics of his instruments.

In 2014, Jacobs enrolled at the Campus Of Performing Arts (C.O.P.A) majoring in drums and guitar, under the training of Nelis Du Plesis, Gerhardt B. Diedericks, Riaan Le Roux, Christiaan Rabie, Mitha Lubbe, Chad J. Knight and Francois Hatting. While doing his first year he started a band called Hidden Within with some of his colleagues and played their first gig at the Oakfield College: Battle of the Bands, in which they came second. Hidden Within played several gigs before breaking up due to change in musical direction.

In 2015, Jacobs started to offer private guitar, drums and theory lessons while doing his second year of studies. Soon Jacobs started to produce his own videos, posting drums and guitar covers to YouTube.
