Though the most widely known of these fables is Jack and the Beanstalk, Jack had many other adventures as well. Folk history books have been written about these traditional tales and are taught in colleges throughout the country.

After years of local and regional performing, Jerry Harmon's first big break came in 1998 with an invitation to appear at North Carolina's renowned Merle-Fest, where some of the country's most celebrated musicians perform.

There he shared the stage with Ricky Skaggs, Tony Rice, Marty Stuart, Earl Scruggs and Dolly Parton.

As a result, a friend with strong Nashville connections helped him gain valuable experience, and exposure at a higher level.

His growing reputation as a remarkable storyteller soon provided opportunities for his original music to be discovered. Jerry quickly gained recognition as an accomplished guitarist with a unique style and a gifted songwriter and singer. He has appeared at major festivals and venues in the U.S. Canada and Europe. Although Jerry lives In the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina and remains true to his roots, he travels throughout the World performing at festivals, schools, small and large venues alike, captivating audiences with an engaging blend of musicianship, gentle wit, and genuine mountain charm. He is an incredible performer, and one that will remain in your memory.
