Puma Blue: International Showcase Fund (SXSW)
Puma Blue is the alias of producer, songwriter and vocalist Jacob Allen. Since the release of his debut EP “Swum Baby” in June 2017, Jacob has built a significant following both amongst fans and tastemakers online and at radio through a series of well received releases. Sell-out tours across the UK and Europe plus trips to Japan, South Korea and Canada have all followed. 2019 sees Puma Blue start to explore the North American market for the first time, with sold out debut shows in New York and Los Angeles in January followed by a full US headline tour in March around the legendary SXSW festival with support from the PRSF International Showcase Fund. With an album due in early 2020, Puma Blue is already building a significant following in North America in anticipation of his debut full length release.
Puma Blue said:
“Playing live in North America has always been a dream for me and wouldn’t be possible at this stage without the support of the PRS Foundation.”
