Highlights

• Jeremy started out as a self described “nerd” doing tech support, and he says that computer interest still comes in handy as a musician.
• After moving to Minnesota to study music, his dreams of playing lead guitar in a rock band gave way to an interest in songwriting.
• In 2017, Jeremy did a form of open source music making by releasing an album as a songbook, encouraging others to sing and record the songs themselves.
• When he needs an artistic spark, Jeremy turns to boredom, cutting himself off from the world to force his mind to tap into creative ideas.
