Yes, Classic Rockers have won a myriad of prestigious awards over the years, but never the Nobel Prize. This also marks the first time in the history of these awards that a musician was honored.
While Elton John, Mick Jagger, and Paul McCartney have been knighted, none has a Nobel Prize.
And B.B. King, Steve Wonder, and James Taylor have won the Presidential Medal of Freedom. BTW Dylan has that in his rec room, too.
President & Founder at Jacobs Media
Fred Jacobs founded Jacobs Media in 1983, and quickly became known for the creation of the Classic Rock radio format.
Jacobs Media has consistently walked the walk in the digital space, providing insights and guidance through its well-read national Techsurveys.
In 2008, jacapps was launched - a mobile apps company that has designed and built more than 1,300 apps for both the Apple and Android platforms. In 2013, the DASH Conference was created - a mashup of radio and automotive, designed to foster better understanding of the "connected car" and its impact.
Along with providing the creative and intellectual direction for the company, Fred consults many of Jacobs Media's commercial and public radio clients, in addition to media brands looking to thrive in the rapidly changing tech environment.
Fred was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 2018.
