The characters, thoughts, dreams, lovers, friends and foes, fears - real and imagined - the Ghosts, are here.
Always will be.
Sure, you can hear the influences from Jeremy Edwards’ upbringing here..Ry Cooder, Joe Henry, Dylan, the country and blues on his parent’s stereo, but what you can really hear is the weight of the influence of his peers around him.
Jeremy's writing and performing in the last five or more years with his band of brothers and sisters..Kevin Bennett, Felicity Urquhart, Shane Nicholson, Jen Mize., Matt Fell..these friends, all now intrinsically bonded also in grief from the passing of their friend and band mate Glen Hannah, these comrades are the ones who have brought Edwards to this point.
Producer and multi instrumentalist Josh Schuberth has also been key in this coming of age. The combination of Jeremy's deeper, darker roots influences and Schuberth’s pop sensitivities and his countless studio time with many of the friends listed here has blended beautifully to become part of the wide and rich palette of modern Australian songwriting and roots music.
Ghosts - coming June 2023

Gentle, catchy and beautifully nostalgic, ‘Boy’ is the new single from respected singer-songwriter, guitarist and producer Jeremy Edwards, the first to be released from his upcoming album ‘Ghosts’. The Josh Schuberth (Shane Nicholson, Matt Fell, Felicity Urquhart) produced track bounces so sweetly along that the uncomfortable memories behind the song are all but forgotten, and instead, wrap the narrative delicately, perfectly. Looking back to the first kiss, the yearning, the shy teen at the beach and then finally arriving in middle age and reflecting on lessons learnt the hard way. The universally awkward themes may be what connects so well here. Sure, you can hear the influences from Jeremy Edwards’ upbringing here and on ‘Ghosts’ but what you can really hear is the weight of the influence of the peers around him. Edwards’ writing and performing in the last five or more years with his talented band of brothers and sisters; Kevin Bennett, Felicity Urquhart, Shane Nicholson, Jen Mize, Matt Fell and the late Glen Hannah - these comrades are the ones who have helped bring Edwards to this point. Producer and multi-instrumentalist Josh Schuberth has also been key in this musical coming of age. The combination of Edwards’ deeper, darker roots influences and Schuberth’s pop sensitivities and his countless studio time with many of the people listed, has blended beautifully here. The bonds between these friends show. You can hear it and in turn, ‘Boy’ is set to become part of the rich palette of modern Australian song writing and roots music. ‘Boy’ is out on Checked Label Services on February 1, 2023.

Described by Grammy winning producer / mixer Eric J Dubowsky (Chet Faker, Flume, Angus and Julia Stone) as ‘the thinking man’s Keith Richards’, Jeremy Edwards is a producer, singer-songwriter and guitarist based in the seaside surrounds of Thirroul, NSW.
He was a Wollongong boy born into a family immersed by music. His parents eclectic vinyl collection (Dylan, the Rolling Stones, Ry Cooder, Frank Zappa and Captain Beefheart alongside more hardcore blues, soul, jazz and classical music) was constantly reverberating at high volume throughout the house, seeping into Jeremy and his older brother’s hearts and minds. Bless. Blessed.
After his return from a few years travelling in Europe, Edwards then began discovering the songs of Patty Griffin, Buddy Miller, Fred Eaglesmith, Steve Earl and Lucinda Williams and the beauty of sweet, close harmony over tough rock n roll guitars. The die was cast.
Jeremy has since gone on to play, work with and write songs with some of Australia’s most successful artists in the Country, Blues and Roots arenas – from 2012 The Voice winner Karise Eden, to Golden Guitar winners Aleyce Simmonds, Kevin Bennett, Lyn Bowtell, Felicity Urquhart and Shane Nicholson, plus many other talented artists including Dom Turner (The Backsliders) and Jen Mize.
In between working with artists such as these Jeremy ran is own 5-piece alt country band Dust Radio, was the musical director for touring acts The Songs And Tales of Angry Old Men and Pearl: The Janis Joplin Story and, with many of the artists previously listed, is a song writing mentor at the annual DAG singer-songwriters retreat in Tamworth.
2023 sees Jeremy Edwards release ‘Ghosts’, his fourth album under his own name, with the first single ‘Boy’ dropping February 1, 2023.
