Biography

My name is Jacob Nierenberg. Pleased to meet you. I'm an experienced journalist who can write in a wide variety of styles: long-form narratives, data journalism, music / film criticism and opinionated writing, to name a few. Some of my other skills include interviewing, public speaking and Microsoft Office. I graduated from Stanford University with a Bachelor of Arts in American Studies in 2017 and completed a Master of Arts in Journalism in 2018. In the past, I’ve held internships at Crosscut, The Seattle Times and The Columbian. When not writing, I can be found listening to music or reading political news.

  • 10 Solo Albums That Every Music Fan Should Own

    By Jacob Nierenberg, Christopher Thiessen Verified| Consequence Verified Editor’s Note: Crate Digging is a recurring feature in which we take a deep dive into a genre and turn up several albums all music fans should know about. This time, we celebrate 10 artists across genre, gender, and generation who “went solo” — leaving their main act to go it alone — and either turned in a masterpiece or took steps toward realizing a new type of genius. The Beatles did not invent the solo album.
