John Pullman "Jake" Longstreth, Jr. (born February 3, 1977,[2] in Amenia, New York)Cite error: The <ref> tag has too many names (see the help page). He is a 2008 recipient of the Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant.[3] His paintings can be found in the collections at the Crocker Art Museum, the Whitney Museum of American Art Library, and JP Morgan Chase, among others.[4]

Longstreth tends to portray architecture in flat, geometric forms, recalling influences such as Robert Bechtle and David Hockney, finding a place between “documentary” realism and symbolic metaphor, whereas his landscapes are portrayed as more of an improvised realism.[5][6][7] He is represented by the Gregory Lind Gallery.[8]

He makes regular appearances as a co-host and former "West Coast correspondent" on Time Crisis, the Apple Music internet radio show hosted by Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig, where he frequently gives in-depth investigative reports on various topics such as the history of the Frito-Lay corporation, PepsiCo, and the NRA.[9]

Longstreth is also a guitarist in the Grateful Dead cover band Richard Pictures. In 2016, he made several appearances with Vampire Weekend and Dirty Projectors as a supporting musician during their performances for Bernie Sanders' campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination.[10][11] Richard Pictures continued to perform with Vampire Weekend at various live shows such as the 2018 Ojai performance,[12] and opened for the band at several venues for their 2019 Father of the Bride tour.[13] In 2019, Longstreth released an EP with rock group Mountain Brews.[14] On October 9th during the 2nd night of their 2 night Red Rocks run, Vampire Weekend covered Longstreth's "Mountain Brews", the self titular track from the EP of the same name. [15]

Longstreth is the older brother of Dirty Projectors lead singer and guitarist David Longstreth.[16][17] He married filmmaker Hannah Fidell on September 23, 2017 in Inverness, California.[18]
