BIOGRAPHY

A new bold sound

Set to release his fourth album, Whole World's Gone Mad, And So Have I, JB ventures into new territory, blending sharp social commentary, long narratives with his signature DIY sound. A departure from the gentle tones of Springtime is Coming, this latest work offers a raw, introspective edge. Recorded at his solar-powered cabin in Cedar Creek, the album comes to life with the dynamic contributions of his band throughout the process.

JB Paterson is a roving blue-collar songwriter and producer. Inspired by traditional folk & blues music, appropriating ancient melodies with a strong focus on lyrics performed on guitar and piano. Compared to songwriters Neil Young, Townes Van Zandt and Bob Dylan.
