Here's what it says on www.myspace.com/jerryleger :
Jerry Leger is a Toronto based folk/roots songwriter. In the few years he's been on the scene he has self released 3 acclaimed albums and toured Canada and the US. Leger is heard regularly on campus radio and CBC shows, "Q", "Drive", "Mainstreet" and "R3-30". He has opened for such acts as Fred Eaglesmith, Jill Barber, Ron Sexsmith, Skydiggers, Jesse Winchester, Justin Townes Earle, Deer Tick, Dawes, Peter Elkas, Kenny Roby, former Beatle Pete Best and Dave Bidini's Bidiniband.
"One of the best songwriters I've heard in quite some time." -Ron Sexsmith
"Leger is another Canadian songwriting legend in the making" - Jason Schneider, The Record
"Leger has one of those open hearted and unaffected voices that you instantly trust. Songs rich with poetic imagery and character-drivenstories, clearly he is an artist to watch." - Kerry Doole, Exclaim!
"Stylish album( You Me and The Horse) which hums to the tune of possible Legendary status. At 23, I cannot wait to see what the future has in store for Leger." - R.H., Maverick Magazine(UK)
"Eventually it all comes down to the story you tell, not the phrase you turn, and for such a young man, it's amazing that Leger already has the confidence and charisma to stand behind his tales. His songs are not the type of songs you play for a room full of people, hoping one sticks. His nasally draw and unfiltered admissions are more suited for a more personal listening experience; a rewarding one at that." -Bryan Acker, Herohill
"Strongly grasping the fundamentals of what has made the likes of John Lennon, Hank Williams and Bob Dylan so important to music. Though carefully and creatively forging his own path, not committing forgery." - William Self, Spill Magazine
"Strong songwriting and a compelling voice" - Jian Ghomeshi, writer, producer, radio host of CBC's Q
"5 out of 5" - Alt. Country
"tapped deftly into this quintessentially Canuck quality with an impressive take on roots and country." - Pras Rajagopalan, Chartattack
