An Intimate Acoustic Evening with Jake Hoot & DEK of Hearts Experience a one-of-a-kind night of acoustic music and storytelling as Jake Hoot and DEK of Hearts share the stage, going back and forth throughout the evening in a songwriters-round style performance filled with heart, harmony, and genuine connection.
Jake Hoot—best known as the Season 17 winner of NBC’s The Voice—is a storyteller with a six-string and a purpose. With his rich, soulful voice and undeniable gift for storytelling, Jake has captivated audiences on iconic stages like the Grand Ole Opry and the Ryman Auditorium.
DEK of Hearts — featuring Akron’s own Dylan John — is the harmony-driven country-pop trio who made a national splash on Season 28 of The Voice. They earned a 4-chair turn and amassed over 12 million views on their Blind Audition, later receiving the Mic Drop moment—their coach Niall Horan’s highest honor—in the Knockout Round. Winners of the 2025 Tennessee Songwriters Competition, DEK of Hearts is known for their compelling storytelling, dynamic acoustic arrangements, and signature three-part harmonies.
Together, Jake Hoot and DEK of Hearts deliver an intimate evening of music rooted in authenticity—sharing songs, stories, and moments that bring listeners closer to the heart of who they are as artists.
