Jeremy, now in his mid-20s, has been writing music since elementary school. It started out as the undisciplined doodling instead of practicing for piano lessons. In his early teens this proceeded to writing electronic music ranging from techno to electronica to industrial to rock (and even some cheesy video game music). Then in 9th grade he picked up guitar which became his favorite musical device. Since then he has performed in a broad range of musical settings including: alternative 90s rock bands, as a solo acoustic artist, various college worship teams, and an energetic indie rock band. Lately he's taken his focus to the acoustic realm as a singer-songwriting, still providing quality songs, unconventional lyrics, and melodies that his friends want to sing along with. He brings an accessible set of tunes to the table. You can relax and enjoy, but also take something home to think about.

greets to all you creatures! it's november...more like the middle of it. and honestly, i'm not going to capitalization today. i prefer having a high resolution set for emphasis levels. ;) so's what's been going on lately? lots of painting and studio rennovating and studio work. those are good things. along with that, i've been plodding through potential candidates for the new album. i made a list and got a little exlcusive, telling all the new undeveloped ideas that keep happening that there's a huge list of other songs that never got their turn to be recorded. i guess, really, anna and i both have just been working on my focus. new ideas keep coming, which i'm thankful for, but there's a set of songs that are done and need to see the light of day. right? it's true, you know it. there's been some restructuring. there have been some relatively older songs pulled out and revisited...no shame in that. there's been a list that's been getting stars, slashes and notes scribbed all over it. there's been a lot of plinking and choosing different keys for things. oh and somehow i started becoming too much of a perfectionist again, so there's been a lot of fighting the "thinking and planning too hard" which avails zero happening of anything. i really admire the people i know that just set out and do something. and heck, if it didn't come out well, they try again. the fact is, i'm slowly training and discliplining myself to give something a shot, even if the day's work will be 0% keeper stuff, because it'll get me further along in a few days than how i've been almost doing things this whole past year. so yes, things are happening. jeremy |
