The Story Behind The Magic

"I performed my first magic trick at 2 years old, making my food 'disappear' for my parents at every meal. I was instantly hooked.

But not everyone enjoys being 'FOOLED' by a kid magician, so growing up I learned to tell STORIES through the magic.

Suddenly, people weren’t made to be the FOOL, they were part of a STORY.

I realized magic doesn't have to be a CHALLENGE pitting the magician against the audience, it could be a means of bringing people TOGETHER and telling stories.

THIS story is about creating the most fun, the most personable, and the most entertaining magic show ever conceived, and bringing it to the world.

No tacky costumes. No rabbits in hats. All FUN.

The mission for every show: Come Together. Be Amazed. Change The Game."

When Savannah Bananas owner Jesse Cole asked for a phone call with Jake, he thought it was in regard to a corporate event for the team. Little did Jake know, that one phone call would turn in to so much more...

Jake is now the world's ONLY magician first-base coach, and you can find him performing magic in the stands, concourse, on the broadcast, on the ESPN+ original series "Bananaland," and of course on the field throughout the game as part of the greatest show in sports.

The Savannah Bananas are the most viral sports team on the planet. They are known for playing a fast-pace version of baseball called "Bananaball." Jake performs for sold out stadiums blending magic and baseball in a way that has never been done before. Jake & The Bananas will play 6 MLB stadiums in 2024.

The shared commitment to pushing the boundaries of what's possible in order to create the highest-quality entertainment for fans is why The Bananas and Jake make such a great team.
