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 in 2006 with the melancholy epic Now’s The Right Time To Feel Good.   In 2007 Gloff started writing "Dear Gloffy," an advice column in Reax magazine.

In  2008 Jeremy Gloff released the 1980s-inspired dance album 1987.  Highlights from this era included a performance at the MondoHomo festival in Atlanta as well as a cameo on the Showtime series "Penn And Teller: Bullshit".  Gloff also sparked conversation with his YouTube video "Jeremy Gloff Rick Rolls The Christians".

Gloff 's current release is entitled "21st Century Love Songs".
