About Jacob Tilton
I grew up in southwest Louisiana, and studied music education at McNeese State University. Over the years, I have taught hundreds of students piano, guitar and a few other instruments. I have also been involved in music ministry since high school. I live in Fort Worth, TX with my wife and three children. I'm the music director at Fort Worth Presbyterian Church, where I have served since 2006. I enjoy cajun food, Texas barbecue, and making my family laugh.

When I was about 8 years old I was with my family at Sam Houston Jones State Park in LA. This kid on a bike rides by and somehow he has a boom box strapped to his bike. That Aline was enough to grab my attention. But out of those speakers came the coolest sounding Gm guitar riff I had ever heard. I was captivated by just the sounds of Money for Nothing. Fast forward about 9 years and I can remember exactly where I was when I heard the guitar solo for Sultans of Swing for the first time sitting in a Toyota pickup truck. Blown away. A few years after that Kerrie and I had the soundtrack to the Princess Bride in our wedding. Mark Knopflerâs music has meant so much to me. To me, nobody tells stories lyrically and musically quite like him. It was great to finally get to see him last night with my favorite gal. #markknopfler #markknopflerlive

To me, thereâs nothing like the joy in New Orleans piano and Dr. John definitely had it. Rip, Doc #drjohn #iko

Very thankful for people like @sandramccracken @carocobbmusic @tfnicholson making beauty for the church. This morning Sandra said something Iâm going to be thinking about for a long time. âThe places where you find a sense of wonder are the places where God is seeking your attention.â
