Artist History
In July of 1997 several members of Me & Jeremy had never met.
When they did meet it was with the sole purpose of starting
a band for musical expression only. However in the next few
weeks they also managed to become great friends, and things
really started clicking. Within eight months they managed
to learn a few hours worth of music, play many cool gigs,
complete a full length CD, produce a video, get played and
interviewed by commercial radio stations, create a web site,
and basically get noticed by music industry professionals
all over the US and Canada. At this point they might be
flying a little too fast, but at least they're having fun.
In just over a year this band has already developed a
strong fan base of really fun people. The evidence of this
can be seen in large crowds, a high demand for merchandise,
and bookings with major acts like The Fixx, Sprung Monkey,
Swerve Driver, Bim Skala Bim, and many others. |

Press Reviews
“You know you’ve reached a new level when you’ve got a dancer!...and even though you can’t get the full effect
without seeing the dancer, this is still a great song!” - Bizzarro Jeff, DJ for The Edge 103.9, commenting on the
single “Geneva In My Kitchen”. - “It caught my ear the first time I heard it. I didn’t have to hear it twice to know I
liked it.”

“Me & Jeremy is an exciting up-and-coming new band, with an innovative original sound.” - Rod Taylor, Festival

“Me & Jeremy is one darn good band! I would also like to add that Me & Jeremy (the music) shines through the
blur of sound-alike bands currently clogging the airwaves.” - Jeff, Blind Frog Magazine.
"May Day, May Day is so well produced and the tunes are so contagious it will probably be a week before I get
‘Pick It Up’ out of my head...@?!# you Me and Jeremy” - Pepper Scott, Pepper’s Web T.V.
“May Day, May Day is a strong first album filled with good music, interesting lyrics, and songs that are just plain
fun to dance along with...What they have here is an amazing chemistry...” - Colette Engel, Reviewer for AMZ
Magazine.
“...fun and fresh..., but they don’t make you feel like throwing up from sickly sweetness...For a band that’s been
around less than a year, this is great.” - Alissa Nelson, Reviewer for Bass Ackwards Magazine.

anything wrong.” - Don Wilcock, Entertainment Reviewer, Troy Record.

Jeremy!” - Bob Girourd, Events Coordinator, City of Albany, Tulip Festival
"Quirky, easy to listen and a nice
hook, that is the best way to
describe "Me & Jeremy."
They are young and good
looking, they are ready for the
prime time and we are inviting
them to play here at OnlineTV.
Like a rocking cross of "They
Might Be Giants" with a little
"Grateful Dead" Me & Jeremy
bring it all together into a great
little pop/rock group.
Perhaps this is the next Beatles
or Byrds. " - http://www.hotstuff-nyc.com/ |
