plays Celtic fingerstyle guitar, a musical style which started
developing over thirty years ago in the British Isles when
guitarists began to render Celtic melodies traditionally played
on harp, pennywhistle, and fiddle. Jerry’s background
as a country artist and songwriter in Nashville, where his
songs were recorded by Conway Twitty, Eddy Arnold, and Jeanny
Pruitt, led him to the music of the Smokey Mountains and the
traditional Celtic melodies behind that music. His repertoire
of lively jigs, spirited reels, and hauntingly beautiful airs
has been described as music to soothe the soul, warm the heart,
and lift the spirit. He will add the perfect Irish flavor
to your Holiday event!
