Jacoby Shaddix (born July 28, 1976) is the frontman and singer of the Nu Metal-band Papa Roach. He also goes by the pseudonyms Coby Dick (used on the Infest-LP) and Jonny Vodka. Jacoby is also working on a side project in the form of heavier band Fight the Sky.

His full name is Jacoby Dakota Shaddix. Shaddix has a wife named Kelly, and two children, a boy and girl named Makaile Cielo Shaddix and Jagger Shaddix respectively.

Jacoby and his brother Bryson have ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) He has another brother named Trevor. Jacoby's parents got divorced when he was 6 years-old. He used to go by Coby Dick but then (around the release of LoveHateTragedy) stated he would then be known by his birth name - Jacoby Shaddix.

It almost seems like the singer, had lost his talent with his old name, the intense classical songs that he wrote in the days of Infest have changed into songs that could only be described as "sappy songs that lack imagine in the writing", this of course caused the fact that the other disks the band have released did not sell as much as the previous CD did and the band was announced to be a "one hit band", something they have a hard time getting away from even though their current single 'scars' is selling well within 5-15 year old girls.

Although it seems like the talented song writer will never have the same muse and never write the same way again, we can always be comforted with the fact that even people who write lines such as "sometimes I get sad, cause I don't know which way to go" or "I never look back cause I don't even want to" sell platinum, so maybe the simple people like us can do it too.


He was featured on MTV's Cribs in 2001.
