As an adopted child, Jeremy began taking piano lessons as early as the age of 5 and attended statewide recital championships as a child. After playing in several different bands in Minneapolis such as Go Nutz! The Clerb, and Bight Club, Velvet Negroni would be birthed as Jeremy’s most complete and true form of self expression. With a so und that is equally as based in the future as it is in the present, Velvet Negroni has been recognized by and performed alongside artists such as Bon Iver, Francis and the Lights, Kool Keith, and numerous Minneapolis based artists.
