City Winery St. Louis presents Jerry Joseph live on Sunday, June 8th at 12pm.
Portland’s Jerry Joseph is a prolific and fearless artist whose songwriting, commanding voice,
and electrifying performances have made him a respected figure in the global music scene.
Over a four-decade career, Jerry has toured the world as a solo artist and with renowned
bands like The Jackmormons, supergroup Stockholm Syndrome, and cult-favorite Little
Women. His music has reached audiences in far-flung locales such as Lebanon, Israel,
Kurdish Iraq, India, and Cambodia, embodying his commitment to using music as a force for
connection and change. An Oregon Music Hall of Fame inductee, Jerry’s extensive catalog
and relentless touring have cemented his reputation as a true original.
In 2020, Jerry released The Beautiful Madness, produced by Patterson Hood and featuring
Drive-By Truckers as his backing band. The critically acclaimed album was hailed as "an
album for the times" (Uncut Magazine) and named among the year’s best by Paste and Glide.
Patterson Hood described Jerry as “one of the greatest live performers I have ever seen and
long one of my favorite songwriters.”
Amid the pandemic, Jerry launched Happy Book, a 64-week livestream series that blended
intimate performances with storytelling, captivating thousands of fans weekly. This innovation
evolved into OIL, a livestream series that launched in 2024. With OIL, Jerry strives to create an
unparalleled space for raw, intimate performances, in-depth conversations, and collaborations
with special guests. This ongoing series not only brings his music to fans worldwide but also
offers an unfiltered look into his artistry and humanity, further deepening his connection with his
audience.
In 2023, Jerry released Baby, You’re The Man Who Would Be King, an album recorded in New
York City and produced by Eric “Roscoe” Ambel. It fulfilled Jerry’s dream of creating a
quintessential New York record and was praised for its dynamic songwriting and evocative
energy. The following year, Jerry & The Jackmormons celebrated the remastered reissue of
their iconic live album Mouthful of Copper with a tour that reignited the electrifying spirit of the
original performances.
Jerry’s first-ever UK Residency Tour in 2024, a series of intimate and sold-out shows, further
solidified his reputation as an international force in live music. The year culminated in a
triumphant five-night New Year’s Eve run in Portland, featuring an impressive lineup of
collaborators and reaffirming Jerry’s ability to create unforgettable musical experiences.
As he looks ahead to 2025, Jerry continues to build on his legacy with relentless touring across
the US, UK, and beyond. Whether performing solo, with The Jackmormons, or through the
evolving OIL platform, Jerry Joseph remains a singular voice in music, delivering powerful,
heartfelt songs that resonate deeply with audiences worldwide
