Ballarat, Victoria alt-country songwriter Jeremy Beggs proudly releases his debut album The Long Road with a launch show at the Painted Lady 1862 on May 22.The album represents Jeremy’s determination to stay the course through doubt and finally feel comfortable in who he is as an artist and person. This album could easily not have happened. He could have played it safe. He could have chosen not to start. But Jeremy did — and along the way he learned that it’s okay to be. Not perfect. Still growing. Still questioning. But okay.
These songs trace his journey — emotionally, spiritually, and musically. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Jason Isbell, John Moreland, Nathaniel Rateliff, and Joe Pug, the album carries those influences while still maintaining a distinctly Australiana feel and sound.
Jeremy will be joined on the night by his band The Long Road Travellers and local folk/country artist Blue Ren.
"In the landscape of Australian Americana, few artists have charted a more consistent and authentic course over the last three years than Jeremy Beggs. Beggs has transformed his personal evolution into a series of winning singles that bridge the gap between rugged country-rock and soulful storytelling."
Country Music News International
"Beggs is a thoughtful artist whose lyrics delve into what it means to be here, being human, and whose Americana sound draws out and reinforces the emotion in his songs."
