An artist heralded and championed by Billboard, Rolling Stone, Vogue, GLAAD, and fellow contemporaries such as Elton John, Brandi Carlile, and more, Jake Wesley Rogers has risen to the forefront of the music industry’s freshman class.

In collaboration with Experian, the upcoming videos showcase how Rogers empowers himself financially and creatively as he navigates his fashion, expression and career.

“I’m so excited to partner with Experian to help raise financial health awareness,” Rogers said. “Team Experian has allowed me to creatively share an inside look at the financial aspects of my career that some might’ve not seen before.”

In the two-part video series, Rogers takes viewers to the make-up and thrift stores to show how he creates his iconic looks for his upcoming tour. His stories highlight how Experian Go can empower consumers considered credit invisibles to establish a financial identity, and how managing everyday choices and decisions can affect one’s financial health.

“Experian is excited to partner with Jake Wesley Rogers, a bold and creative artist who uses his authentic voice and influence to advocate for the LGBTQ+ audience. Jake integrates budgeting ideas and financial health into his every day, whether it’s getting ready for his upcoming tour with Panic! At The Disco or thrifting for costume ideas, he is creating a better tomorrow for young adults and their financial health,” said Abigail Lovell, Chief Sustainability Officer for Experian.

The first Financial Glow Up video of this series debuts Tuesday, July 26 at 1:00 p.m. EST on TikTok and Instagram.

The partnership with Rogers is part of Experian’s United for Financial Health initiative, which aims to empower and protect consumers to improve their financial health through education and action. He will also join Experian’s new partnership with True Colors United to help end homelessness among LGBTQ+ youth.

Experian is committed to financial inclusion and empowerment for all, and its commitment to the LGBTQ+ community globally includes partnering with Born This Way Foundation, supporting transgender and non-binary consumers with the name change process on their credit reports and its weekly Twitter #Creditchat addresses important financial topics such as Financial Tips for Same Sex Couples and the LGBTQ+ Community.

About Jake Wesley Rogers

An artist heralded and championed by Billboard, Rolling Stone, Vogue, GLAAD, and fellow contemporaries such as Elton John, Brandi Carlile, and more, Jake Wesley Rogers has risen to the forefront of the music industry’s freshman class. Still working proudly alongside hit songwriter Justin Tranter (and signed to his Warner Records imprint, Facet Records), Jake remains an artist with a melody and a message, one he spread to new audiences with is daytime television debut during the recent final season of Ellen. Never preachy but always poignant, his lyrics – on breakout singles like the recent “Lavender Forever” as well as the beloved songs from his 2021 EP, Pluto – have enraptured audiences from all over the world.

Next, Jake will open Panic! At the Disco’s arena tour alongside Marina, continuing to reach the hearts and minds of audiences around the country (and the world). “The past few years woke me up to what being alive is really about,” Jake says, “and now I get to use those fulfilled dreams to anchor the next chapter in my career, my artistry, and my growth.”
