About the event
Jerry K. Reed is a solo artist from Hamburg, who stands for a reduced but soulfull blend of blues & jazz, while telling his stories about life. Some of them are not easy to listen to, but there is always a glimpse of hope and most of his tales are driven by a tongue in cheek sense of humor.
After his first EP „Facets“ in 2018 and his first full length LP „Vol. I“ in 2020, in the spring of 2023 new material will be released. For the first time he recorded not only alone but with the help of Holger Engellandt on drums and Ronnie Henseler on double bass. This gives the songs a new dimension and depth, which underlines the emotions and sometimes haunting moods even more. The eight tracks will be released stepwise digitally, but at the concerts there will be the exclusive opportunity to get all songs in bundle as a download, coming with a lovingly designed 24-page booklet including analog taken pictures and the lyrics. Jerry K. Reed is all about emotion and brutal honesty, when sharing his thoughts about life of the times and the society we're living in. Some of the stories are not easy to listen to, but there is always a glimpse of hope and most of his tales are driven by a tounge in cheek sense of humor. While constantly working on new songs, he is always eager to play as much live as possible, for which it doesn’t matter if it’s in a gloomy, smoke saturated bar or a living room in front of a few listeners.
„I was born in the shadows, outside the doors.“ – Jerry K. Reed
