Jeremy Current (Born December 15, 1985 in Charlotte, NC) is an American songwriter, musician, and band leader. He has released two records, including his most recent Dark Land of the Sun in April 2011. Current lives in Brooklyn, NY where he writes and performs. However, his music holds on to strong roots of North Carolina where he is originally from. Jeremy released his first E.P entitled House on Fire in October 2009. The album was well received and was described as "travers[ing] an entire range of emotions, from homesickness to the double-edged sword of love lost and found. There’s a world-weariness here that’s coupled with a quiet determination to keep pressing on. Musically, there’s beautiful instrumentation at work, with each piece of the puzzle subtly complementing the next. Current’s voice hovers just above it all, somehow urgent, yet assured, all at once."[1] He recorded his newest record Dark Land of the Sun at Skaggs Place Studios in Hendersonville, TN in January 2011. The album was co-produced by Current and Luke Skaggs. It features performances by Ricky Skaggs, The Whites, and Grand Ole Opry pedal steel player, Tommy White. The record was engineered and mixed by Grant Harding. Creative Loafing praised Current for his "solid songwriting and lyrical content and the perfect voice for its delivery." [2] In 2012, Current was awarded the Abe Olman Scholarship for excellence in songwriting by the Songwriters Hall of Fame.[3] References1. ^{{cite web|last=Hunt|first=Jeremy|title=Jeremy Current: House On Fire EP|url=http://www.shakefire.com/reviews/cd/jeremy-current-house-on-fire-ep|work=Jeremy Current: House On Fire EP|publisher=Shakefire.com|accessdate=19 September 2011}} {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Current, Jeremy}}2. ^{{cite web|last=Hahne|first=Jeff|title=CD REVIEW: Jeremy Current's Dark Land of the Sun|url=http://clclt.com/charlotte/cd-review-jeremy-currents-dark-land-of-the-sun/Content?oid=2183061|work=CD REVIEW: Jeremy Current's Dark Land of the Sun|publisher=Creative Loafing|accessdate=19 September 2011}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Abe Olman Scholarship|url=http://www.songhall.org/scholarships/entry/jeremy_current|publisher=Songwriters Hall of Fame|accessdate=15 May 2012}} 8 : 1985 births|Living people|Musicians from Charlotte, North Carolina|American singer-songwriters|American bandleaders|People from Brooklyn|Songwriters from New York (state)|21st-century American singers |
