I recently heard an interview with Jeremy Fisher on CBC radio, Specifically, "Q" with Jian Ghomeshi. I can't tell you how impressed I am with this guy! Well maybe I can. Here goes...
First. He's writes great songs. You need to check out Shine a little light , Cigarette, Jolene and The Scar that never heals. These are all Youtube videos that stand by themselves, but the songwriting is superb.
Jeremy's performance is somewhere a cross between Bob Dylan and Paul Simon. He plays guitar feverishly and keeps things moving along with savory lyrics and appealing melodies.
In the CBC interview Jeremy gave a live performance, just him and his guitar. Definitely not as polished as his recordings but authentic and satisfying just the same, maybe better.
If you get a chance check him out at a live event or pickup his new album. This guy is a true talent that needs to be appreciated for his art.
