 enaissance Artists and Writers Association 2020 Songs For Social Change Co
 mpetition ('Land Fills').\n\n'Jeremy's latest record (From Those Sweet Ash
 es) gets right to the point... great lyrics\, great melody\, and fascinati
 ng production that demands your attention. A lot of heart\, mind\, and ski
 ll went into this.' - Fran Snyder\, Listening Room Network\n\n'The next in
 stantiation of Nick Lowe and other power-pop barons already exists\, and t
 his (From Those Sweet Ashes) is his defining work to date.' - Loring Wirbe
 l\, CSindy\n\nJeremy Facknitz has been entertaining audiences with his lov
 ingly crafted music and high-energy performances for over 20 years. Since 
 the 2002 break-up of his Detroit-based band 'The Ottomans' (2001 Detroit M
 usic Award Winner\, Best New Alternative Band)\, Jeremy has performed prim
 arily as a solo act\, sharing through an often quirky fusion of folk-rock 
 and jazz his intimate stories of life\, love\, and self-discovery.\n\nBut 
 from 2003 to 2017 those stories\, for the most part\, fell on deaf ears. F
 acknitz carved out a living performing at bars\, coffeeshops\, and corpora
 te events while teaching lessons on the side. 'I was happy to be making a 
 living performing music\, but my original music wasn't being heard\, and a
 s the years passed I found myself more and more frustrated playing to litt
 le more than the din of drunken conversation.' Things came to a head on Ju
 ly 17th\, 2017 when Jeremy was diagnosed with viral meningitis. 'I came fa
 ce to face with my mortality\, and I realized it was time for a change. I 
 quit the bars and spent the next year making the leap to house concerts\, 
 touring\, and performing solely for listening audiences.'\n\nThe leap has 
 paid off. His latest album 'From Those Sweet Ashes'\, released in 2020\, h
 as earned awards and critical acclaim. He continues to book shows in the U
 nited States\, Canada and the U.K.\, performing primarily at festivals\, l
 istening venues and house concerts.\n\nAgain\, suggested donation at the d
 oor for Jeremy Facknitz. is $20.00. All funds collected will go to the art
 ist.\n
