He would have blown away Blind Blake !
V funny guy. It’s kind of weird he got so good already, a master of so many instruments (he’s amazing on piano too).
He should be a National treasure (if he’s not already!)

That is so true!
Check out Johnny St. Cyr's Unidentified Rag at 1:20...
And Jeron's own Mississippi Bottom... (love the Fraulini guitar)

Jerron has just played in London at the Bush Hall at the weekend. The show was promoted by my brother, David - DMP Promotions. I was hoping to book Jerron for Pocklington, but as that is no longer happening I am considering doing a one-off event with him at some point. I believe he is working on a new album, which after many years of not releasing any new music is a good move for him.
Shine On Michael
