JEREMY GLOFF BIOGRAPHY
Jeremy Gloff is an independent
musician and writer who has self-released over a dozen albums since
1993. Born in western New York to a family rife with alcoholism and
mental illness, Gloff found solace in music at a young age. While most
boys were collecting action figures Gloff immersed himself in the music
of Madonna, Stevie Nicks, and other flashy female icons from the 1970s
and 80s.
Gloff’s debut
release was the home-recorded cassette True Stories. Gloff’s heart-on-his-sleeve approach is evident from the first track. During the mid-1990s Gloff moved frequently, living
in Buffalo, Pittsburgh, and Atlanta. Gloff continued to issue music on
his own Riotboy Records. Between 1995 and 1998 Gloff released
seven albums.
In 1998 Jeremy Gloff relocated to Tampa, Florida. 2000’s Spin Girl Spin was Gloff’s most successful recording to date. Momentum continued to grow when tracks from 2001’s America Is Lonely Tonight were featured (along with a cameo from Gloff himself) in the documentary Hooked. 2003’s Romantico
was Gloff’s most polished work but personal issues prevented the
album from being promoted properly. In 2004 Gloff released the acoustic
and cathartic Orange Songs.
After a low key west tour Gloff took the remainder of 2004 and all of
2005 off. Gloff re-emerged only briefly in 2006 with the
melancholy epic Now’s The Right Time To Feel Good.
Jeremy Gloff will return soon with the 1980s-inspired dance album 1987. For more information about the colorful life and career of Jeremy Gloff please visit www.jeremygloff.com.
