Bio: I was born in October. I don't remember it at all. I lived in the country with my folks, sister, 6 dogs & 2 ghosts. The ghosts blew out all the light-bulbs in the house but they saved my sister when she fell down the stairs. We shared a farm with our neighbors. Milk went from the cow to the bucket to the fridge. We travelled on weekends to craft-shows to sell my mother's horseshoe nail jewelry. All over NY, PA, OH, WV, VA, down to MD and TN. Her display looked like a horse wagon. The wagon wheels were made by an Amish man down the road (my father paid him in hubcaps) and the rest was barn board covered in black velvet. All packed into a Chevy van dragging a crank-open camper. The 70's baby. All I remember is wandering around vast arenas and city streets filled with artists, their stuff, with tens of thousands of people walking around all day. I was 4. My sister was watching me. She was 6. They always had live bands. One gave me a signed record. I still have it. But it's bent like a Pringle cuz I left it on the back seat of the car, half on half off the seat and it was 100º F that day. Record melted. We moved to Fredonia, NY, which, incidentally, has the prettiest girls in the world. Someone stole my matchbox car collection my first day at the playground. Major bummer. We had 11 vinyl records in the house. Beatles, Dylan, Righteous Brothers, Beach Boys, Tina Turner, Neil Diamond, The Coasters, and some others. My mother taught exercise classes and always had the new 45's when a song came out so she could make mix tapes to dance to. My father listened to only Motown in the car. I didn't know it was Motown at the time. It was just music. If I tried to change it he'd slap my hand and say "When you drive, you can change the station." He let me drive when I was 6. From the passenger side. One hand on the wheel. He was steering with his legs but I didn't know it. I never changed the station. I got taller. I ate pizza, drank grape juice, and played in the woods. I thought I was a ninja. My folks sent me to take piano lessons. When I was 10 my friend stole a cassette from his sister and gave it to me. It was "Hallowed Ground" by Violent Femmes. I liked the song "Never Tell." The tape deck broke with the tape in it and it got thrown out. At some point I got a guitar. At the same point the girl I liked dumped me. I been a mess since then. I'm older now than I was. I lived in NC, Boston, NH, and now I live in Nashville. I don't sleep much.
MUSIC BIZ BIO:In 2007, Jabe Beyer won the BMI Music Maker Songwriting Competition and was nominated for two Boston Music Awards as well as a nomination in the WFNX Best Music Poll. His namesake band, JABE, won the Abe Oleman Songwriting Award from The Songwriting Hall of Fame as well as Boston Music Awards. Four self-produced, self-released albums along with extensive U.S. and European tours earned JABE a reputation as one of Boston's best and hardest working live acts. The Boston Globe hailed JABE as "a leader in the roots music renaissance," and Jam Magazine listed the 2-disc album 'Drama City' at Number 2 in their Best 100 Albums of The Last 10 Years. Beyer's side project, The Benders, bloomed into alt-country-bluegrass favorites, embraced nationally by the press and a hardcore fanbase. He has also worked as a sideman guitarist and keyboard player, touring & performing with Kris Delmhorst, Todd Thibaud, Dennis Brennan, Sarah Borges & The Broken Singles, Nini Camps, Bow Thayer, Deb Talan, Richard Davies, and others. He has produced albums by The Cassavettes, Tim Gearan, The Chip Smith Project, Kelleigh Bannen, & Andrew Duhon (co-produced with Grammy winner Trina Shoemaker), and has appeared on albums by Kris Delmhorst, Sarah Borges & The Broken Singles, Dennis Brennan, Kelleigh Bannen, Jimmy Ryan, The Resophonics, Bow Thayer, Todd Thibaud, Scissorfight, Tim Gearan, Bang Camaro, Session Americana, The Chip Smith Project, Jon Nolan, Sticky, Jeff Klein, Richard Davies, David Rovics, The Legend of Toadstool Harry and others. Now living in Nashville Tennessee, Beyer's new band is The All Night Circus, named after his brain.
