Hello, I'm Jerry Dugger.
I caught the music bug early in life, listening to my parents Ida and Alfonza sing around the house, singing with them in church, and listening to their collection of 78rpm records.
I always loved to listen to and sing to the radio, I guess that would be how I developed my voice, and eclectic musical tastes.
Through an amazing set of circumstances I found myself being introduced to the New York City Blues scene by way of the now infamous Dan Lynch Blues Bar. I spent thirteen years studying Blues and running the Saturday afternoon jam session there. This little bar became the hub of the Blues scene in NYC, many legendary Blues musicians stopped by to say hello and sing a song on a Saturday afternoon, it is an education that could not be replicated. These days my music is focused on my original compositions, The Blues, and Country Music. My mission is to write and sing great songs. A great song can touch you the way nothing else can. A great song can take complex issues and break them down so everyone can understand them.
I hope you enjoy the range of performances displayed in these recordings,
I had a great time doing them.
