Jeremy Kushnier Bio
Jeremy's music is an acoustic blend of rock and pop that gleans it’s inspiration from an era of analog tape and tube warmth. There is an honesty in Jeremy's music that keeps it grounded while his writing fuses his love of singer songwriters with his self proclaimed pop addiction.
Jeremy's second self produced release, "Jeremy Kushnier" is currently for sale online.
Jeremy's music is reminiscent of groups like Train and Matchbox 20 and singer/songwriters like Sheryl Crow and John Mayer. His music is filled with a wide range of influences from folk to jazz.
His debut album "In Time" which was released in 2002 has been selling well across the United States and beyond.
Originally from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, Jeremy has been performing since he was 9 years old. Singing is something that has always come naturally to him.
In 1994 Jeremy moved from Winnipeg to Toronto to join the original Canadian company of "The Who's Tommy". He lived in Toronto for 4 years performing with a range of very talented people like Melanie Doane, Tylie Ross, and Divine Brown (formerly Divine Earth Essence). He also appeared in the original Canadian company of "RENT".
In 1998 he packed his guitar and took a 12 hour bus ride from Toronto to New York to land the starring role in the musical version of "Footloose".
While doing that show he continued to hone his writing skills while getting the opportunity to perform with the likes of Elton John and Pete Townsend.
Since the release of his first independent CD "In Time" Jeremy has been playing clubs in New York and throughout the United States and Canada.
And, although still currently unsigned, Jeremy has amassed a tremendous following of diehard fans who have traveled the country and the world to see him.
In early 2005 Jeremy got together with his friend and musical director, Jonathan Dinklage, to start recording his follow up EP. They went to Kaleidoscope Studios in Union City, New Jersey, well rehearsed and ready to make some music. All the songs on the new album were recorded to two inch tape through a fantastic analogue board. All these pieces put together with a fantastic band and a bunch of great songs has made for a really great album.
In recent news Jeremy's song "Allison" from his latest cd has been featured on the CW's "One Tree Hill".
Having recently moved out west to LA from New York, Jeremy is looking forward to playing out and broadening his fan base on the west coast.
