In this one-night-only event, Jacob Collier will present the first-ever Audience Symphony Orchestra -- a groundbreaking performance that invites fans to be more than spectators. Evolving his global 'Audience Choir' phenomenon into an orchestral one, fans who are (i) legal residents of the 50 U.S. and D.C., (ii) eighteen (18) years of age or older, and (iii) have the unrestricted right to work in the U.S. or have employment authorization in the U.S., are invited to apply for a position in the audience-generated ensemble via this submissions form. Up to fifty (50) musicians will be selected to perform Jacob's original compositions live on stage at San Francisco's legendary Davies Symphony Hall on October 27, under the baton of his mother and esteemed conductor, Suzie Collier.
With a depth and imaginatory infinity that is beyond question, musical multi-hyphenate Jacob Collier has taken the world by storm. Described as "the colourful Mozart of Gen Z" by the New York Times, his genre-bridging discography has led to 7 GRAMMY wins and 15 GRAMMY nominations, making him the first British artist in history to win GRAMMYs for each of his first 5 studio albums. His fearless approach to music has attracted 100+ collaborators, including Coldplay, John Legend, SZA, Hans Zimmer, Tori Kelly, John Mayer, Anoushka Shankar, Shawn Mendes, Joni Mitchell and more. Whether it's writing songs in keys that don't exist, or bringing 100,000 people together in improvised song - Jacob continues to push the boundaries of what's creatively possible in a language beyond words.

Recognized by audiences, critics and fellow musicians alike as one of the most gifted young artists of modern times, Jacob Collier already boasts a seemingly endless list of achievements including five Grammy wins - which saw him become the first British act in history to win four Grammys for each of his first four albums - along with 11 Grammy nominations including Album of the Year in 2021. His roster of collaborators is astoundingly varied and vibrant, recording and performing with UK music icons like Coldplay and Stormy, American superstars such as SZA, Alicia Keys and John Mayer, to Malian singer Oumou Sangaré and Moroccan Gnawa mâalem Hamid El Kasri. Each artist has sought out Collier's distinct musical identity, cementing his status as the conduit for a generation's ineffable creativity. Jacob now embarks on the finale of his 4 Volume epic Djesse series, with Volume 4 scheduled to be released on February 29´, 2024. Its most recent single, "Little Blue," features Americana songstress Brandi Carlile.
