Rev. Jacob Nault is a pianist, vocalist, composer, arranger, and pastor whose unique musical style is shaped by his lived experience with cerebral palsy.

A native of Neenah, Wisconsin, he has distinguished himself by playing piano with only six fingers—with one in use in his left hand—while still achieving a fullness of sound usually attainable only by able-bodied musicians. Praise from newspaper articles published across the United States, as well as an appearance on Classical Minnesota Public Radio in 2016, offered opportunities to tell his story to a wider audience.

Jacob's compositions and arrangements receive acclaim and recognition from conductors, recording artists, and other musicians alike, as a result of several commissions. His compositions and arrangements have been performed by church and school ensembles nationwide, and several original worship songs will soon be published by the Convergence Music Project, a progressive Christian worship music resource. Jacob's music has also been used by such organizations as the Institute for Theology and Disability and the Wisconsin Council of Churches.

As a performer, Jacob offers music for community events, as well as musical and worship leadership in Christian circles (most recently in the United Church of Christ, Presbyterian Church (USA), and United Methodist Church). In these events, Jacob blends his unique musical style with his disability advocacy.  He is also active as a session musician for other artists. He can be heard on many new songs by psalmist and singer-songwriter Dr. Richard Bruxvoort Colligan.

Jacob is an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ and currently serves as settled pastor of Union-Congregational Church of Waupun, WI. In this work, he has partnered with the United Church of Christ Disabilities Ministries Board to create liturgies, preaching aids, music, devotionals, and other disability resources for the wider church.

Jacob received his Bachelor of Arts in Vocal Performance and Pedagogy and a minor in Church Music at Lakeland University in Sheboygan, Wisconsin in 2017. He received his Master of Divinity in 2021 from Eden Theological Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri.
