    Artist description
    "The music style in general is alternative, so.. a bit of grunge, a bit of punk and in my opinion there are also some similarities to the Beatles and Ben Harper. Just a really great mixture, yet i think it's pretty hard to describe the influences, cause it just has a lot of an own style. The songs are often very different... still the same kinda style, it's sometimes just varied atmospheres they bring across. That's another thing I really love bout Jeremy's songs. You get some kinda feeling with that song you listen to. It's not just something shallow and superficial you listen to while taking a shit or whatever. It really brings something across". --Julia Hansen, Internet Reveiwer

    Press Reviews
    "I really love his style of music and my comp is pretty full of his songs..well, the accoustic versions. my favourites are "fiberglass", "addict", "lies"and such.well..actually loadsa more, but i can't mention them all. the reason why i love fiberglass most..mm well, i can't really describe the reason why too well and jeremy's nothappy with that =P anyways i'll try... i just think in that song voice and guitars and bass and everything fits together so perfectly well and apart from that the lyrics are great, ilove them anyways. kinda the same goes for addict and well lies... it's like.. more punk than the ones mentioned above and although i only know it as an accoustic versionit's just awesome and there are great screaming parts in it. The music style in general is alternative, so.. a bit of grunge, a bit of punk and in my opinion there are also somesimilarities to the beatles and ben harper. just a really great mixture, yet i think it's pretty hard to describe the influences, cause it just has a lot of an own style. the songsare often very different...still the same kinda style, it's sometimes just varied atmospheres they bring across. that's another thing i really love bout jeremy's songs. you getsome kinda feeling with that song you listen to. it's not just something shallow and superficial you listen to while taking a shit or whatever. it really brings something across. --Julia Internet Reveiwer
