eremy is a true
underground artist. Pilgrim's Journey was his first CD for
Kinesis, followed two years later by Celestial City. Although
new to many, Pilgrim's Journey and Celestial City
are Jeremy's 15th and 16th albums respectively!
From a musical family, Jeremy began playing piano at age six. At age 13, he bought his
first guitar and began collecting albums. By age 15, Jeremy was playing out regularly in
various local rock bands. This was during the time of progressive rock’s birth.
The turning point came when his father helped him build a home recording studio. Many
hours were spent writing and recording. This eventually led to the formation of JAM
Records, Jeremy’s own independent label, its purpose to ensure artistic freedom.
Today, Jeremy works out of home, still writing and recording with longtime friend and
drummer Dave Dietrich. A family man, Jeremy spends much of his time with his wife
Katherine and five children. He still performs live, and has veered away from cover tunes
to concentrate on original music.
When it comes to
progressive rock, Jeremy’s main influences include Genesis, Camel, Tangerine Dream,
Barclay James Harvest, Pink Floyd, Kayak, and The Moody Blues. His favorite guitarists are
Steve Hackett, Gordon Giltrap, Anthony Phillips, David Gilmour, and Joe Satriani. Jeremy
