I am a product of the 70's; I was raised listening to Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Doobie Brothers, Pink Floyd, Janis Jopplin and many other iconic classic rock legends. My love for music is vast. I love so many styles such as classic rock, hard rock, blues, spanish jazz, alternative, punk..... the list goes on. But if I were to be a rock star, I would be real rocker! Sorry I wouldn't be a Britney Spears or even Madonna (who I love), I would be a chick rocker in Stone Temple Pilots if I could. Unfortunately I didn't get the trait of a kick ass voice like my sister Karlee and my brother, the rocker, Wesley Dickson! My bro is living my ultimate dream and I am so proud of him! Thankfully I can have a glimpse into the spirit of a rocker and the thrill of a stage when I go to his concerts! I get so amped from their music, the beat of the drums, the twang of the strings, the edge of the mic!
Wesley is the lead singer of Jeramiah Red, a rock band at it's finest! They are the perfect blend of classic rock, blues, grass roots blended with some hard rock! There sound reaches the souls of all ages! They get the crowd going at every venue and their following grows daily!
If I weren't related to the lead singer, I would still be their biggest fan; I listen to them at home!
Lucky for me, these guys have pretty much grown up with Wes. We have the priveledge of their presence at our holiday get-togethers and our Christmas is the best! After a day of chaos, food, presents, paper, kids on a sugar high, we hang out around a fire and the boys break out their guitars and sing acoustic! Even better, both of my bro-in-laws are fabulous musicians as well and it's a family affair of shredding on guitars and ripping out a little, "I Love this Bar" as the night comes to an end.
Anyhow, onto a night with Jeramiah Red...
At the Whiskey and HEADLINING!!!!! Yes you heard me right- the boys were the HEADLINERS at the WHISKEY a Go Go!!!!
Jeremiah Red began their journey 2006. Wesley was originally apart of the Relentless, while Ian was the lead singer of another band (sorry I don't remember the name). My sister Kendee was about to get married, so I threw her a Bachelorette party here in LB. We rented a trolley from George's Greek Cafe and headed to the Queen Mary for a massive concert that my brother was going to be playing. He was asked to be a guest singer for Ian's band for one song. From there it seemed to be the beginning of some great collaborations and shortly after Jeramiah Red was formed!
Your music inspires me! I look forward to the day, I can say I knew them when...
You guys are on your way! I look forward to buying a CD soon!
