A Canadian singer and songwriter named Jacob Hoggard has a net worth of $3 million.
On July 9, 1984, Jacob Hoggard was born in Burnaby, Canada.
He is most recognized for his third-place finish on the second season of Canadian Idol in 2004.
Hoggard was a member of Hedley’s high school band.
Canadian Idol was won by him, who placed a $150 bet with his band mates and made it to the top three.
Following their appearance on Idol, Hoggard and his bandmates separated and he recruited new members to join the band, including bassist Tommy Macdonald, guitarist Dave Rosin, and drummer Chris Crippin, to continue his career. Hedley was still the band’s leader, and they released their self-titled debut CD, which went platinum, as well as their first single On My Own, which was a huge hit in Canada.
Among the singles from that CD are Gunnin’, Villain, Trip, and Streetfight.
Famous Last Words, the band’s second CD, achieved platinum status in Canada with singles like She’s So Sorry, Never Too Late, Old School and For The Nights I Can’t Remember.
Released on their CD The Show Must Go in November 2009, the album featured songs such as Cha Ching, Don’t Talk To Strangers, Perfect, and Love Loving.
The band’s work ethic and Jacob’s occasionally outrageous antics are what have made them one of Canada’s most successful and recognizable bands.
The marriage between Jacob and his high school sweetheart ended in divorce in 2009.
