Jake has launched a new Pay it Forward Acoustic Tour in response to his new album, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE to be released this fall.
The tour uses the Good Samaritan theme from the book & movie "Pay it Forward." In the movie, little acts of kindness culminated into something bigger. In this same vein, McVey is giving back to the communities that he visits by performing acoustic versions of his show at nursing homes, hospitals, retirement communities, and centers for children and adults with special needs. It is difficult for some to get out for entertainment like a concert, so Jake is bringing the music to them.
"There is nothing better when you take time to give back. When you're performing in front of people who would just love for someone to say 'Hi' or ask 'How's your day going.' It's amazing seeing their faces light up...by the warmth of a song. You know that you truly brought joy to someone's life and brightened their day. So Pay It Forward, why not, and just see what can happen!" --Jake McVey
