Born in Atlanta, JeCobi Swain got his start in the industry at the age of 4 when his dad was part of "So You Think You Can Dance" season 11. JeCobi danced along with his dad, and everyone saw he was a natural performer who came alive on stage. Knowing he had something special, JeCobi's parents facilitated his talent, and he began training in both on-camera techniques and musical theatre at the Alliance Theater at the age of 4, and is currently coached in dancing by his dad and his mom in acting. He has consistently been performing ever since, and brings his personality and passion to every role he books.
With an already impressive resume under his belt, JeCobi can be seen in commercials for Sky Zone, Delta, Spectrum, Boys & Girls Club of America, Arby's, Hilton, Etch-A-Sketch, Nike, American Family Insurance, The General Insurance alongside Shaq and the Emmy-nominated " I AM FOX" commercial for legendary The Fox Theatre. He also has lent his voice to numerous projects including NFL's "Win Your Weekend" commercial series and has appeared in many music videos including "Reverse" by Greg Sykes, "Be There" by Teyana Taylor featuring T.I. and "USA" for Ludacris' Kid Nation project.
When JeCobi is on stage, he feels at home, but when not acting, he can be found playing basketball, soccer and football, dancing, meditating, collecting crystals or learning how to play the guitar. He is passionate about his faith in God and helping animals, homeless people and those battling cancer. Swain is inspired by his parents and himself, for all that he has accomplished thus far, and by iconic actors Michael B. Jordan, Denzel Washington, Keanu Reeves and Leonardo DiCaprio. In the future, he hopes to be a director and producer, an R&B artist, an exotic animal specialist, a movie fight choreographer and a firefighter.
