About Me

Hello all. I'm Jeremy Prouty, your tour guide on this rock and roll odyssey. I'm the ringleader of this musical endeavor, being the vocalist, guitarist, bassist and all-around songwriter. My music is a torrid blend of equal parts rock and metal that has the ability to still kick ass while being accessible to the masses. It wasn't easy to get where I am, though. I seriously started playing guitar in 2003 when I got my first electric guitar and amp. That same year I was invited to join a band made up of three high school friends. For obvious reasons, it didn't work out and I was left solo. So after that, I got new guitar gear, changed my taste in music and started to write original stuff (some of the stuff on my site is that old). Give me a listen and let me know what ya think. Whether you love it or hate it, one thing's for sure: I ain't stopping anytime soon. By the way, I'm looking for musicians to form a band and perform this music live and possibly do another album. All interested guitarists, bassists, drummers, keyboard players and singers should get in touch with me and we can go from there.Contact: [email protected]
