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.

hi all! well, i've been working hard in my studio getting some projects done for various bands. otherwise, i started pre-production on my next album. it's going to be very different from 'progress '. most likely there will be multiple drummers and heck, i'm gonna try to borrow a few different guitars from friends. :) it's been fun trolling through idea recordings and well picking from the stack of finished songs... we shall see eh? :) the hope is to get it done this fall. potentially there is a enough time, but i'm not going to push for a hard deadline like we did on 'progress '....there's so much i wouldn't done differently. i would've made time to get anna's singing in, probably allowed another song or two to make it on, been far more thoughtful and patient with the art...something more 'win-some' to the eye... but hey, we learn right? :) i think that's one lesson i've learned over and over with this stuff and even from when i worked in the corporate world: there's hard deadlines and there's quality. if there's not enough quality, you blew it. of course, there is a balance. but it's a fact too much quality is sacrificed far too often. oh yes, and we're all crazy. it's true. oh yes, also, andy and i are working on our born of tides project as well. it's more andy's project than mine really. ;) i have a lot of singing to do though! the last week of october we have some days blocked off to get the drums down. we're slowly putting it all together in-between times he's not on tour doing sound and lights for the innerpartysystem . alright. hoped you liked reading. and i hope i didn't mal-form any phrases again! jeremy |
