He began working on the album in late 2015, after performing with the WDR Big Band in a concert in Cologne, Germany.[13][14] He arranged, recorded and produced the album entirely on his own, playing every instrument heard in the album.[7] As part of the creation of the album, he created a new instrument called the "Harmoniser", a synthesiser which samples the voice of an artist in real time, so that the artist can sing harmonies live.[7][11][15][16] Out of the eleven songs on the album, he wrote eight. The album was recorded and mixed in a three-month period[17] in the music room of his family home in London, England, hence the title. The album cover is an image of the family music room, with several of the instruments used in the album. It was mastered by Bernie Grundman.[18] Following the release, Collier embarked on a world tour with his one-man show, which included playing at the 2016 Montreux Jazz Festival.[19]

In My Room (с англ. — «В моей комнате») — дебютный студийный альбом английского музыканта Джейкоба Кольера, выпущенный 15 июля 2016 года звукозаписывающими компаниями Membran, Must Have Jazz и Qwest Records. 17 февраля 2017 года в Лос-Анджелесе на 59-ой церемонии «Грэмми» композиция «You and I» Стиви Уандера и кавер-версия на песню «Flinstones» из одноимённого американского комедийного мультсериала были удостоены премии «Грэмми» в джазовых категориях «Лучшая инструментальная аранжировка или аранжировка а капелла» и «Лучшая инструментальная аранжировка в сопровождении вокалиста(ов)» соответственно[1][2][3][4][5][6]. Таким образом, в возрасте 21 года Джейкоб являлся обладателем сразу двух «Грэмми»[6][7]. Из 11 композиций он написал 8, остальные 3 являются кавер-версиями многих знаменитых песен, одной из которых является «In My Room» американской рок-группы Beach Boys с их альбома 1963 года Surfer Girl. На обложке альбома изображён Джейкоб в окружении его многочисленных инструментов в своей небольшой комнате дома его родителей в Лондоне, где он полностью записал, исполнил и спродюсировал все композиции в течение 3 месяцев.
