(2014)
A love of storytelling, evocative lyrics and lush imagery characterize Jeremy's first solo work. Recorded and mixed by producer Matthew Vitti of MotherBrother Studios, and featuring Pete Griffin (Young Beautiful In A Hurry, Zappa Plays Zappa), Aaron Kotler, and Silouette Quartet.
“... a daring, brave set of songs that strips away the mind’s trickery of camouflage and crutches, and bares the truth of an individual through words and music. It’s touching, relevant and excellent. [...] There’s a whole world lensed through the shimmering window of this album.”
Rust Magazine
“In addition to his skills as a guitarist and wordsmith, Bass shows off an ear-pleasing tenor throughout an 11-track release that was the very definition of ambitious. ... This is an enjoyable effort from a talented artist that deserves to be on your radar.”
Pittsburg In Tune
“[Bass] is a master storyteller [...] there is nothing out of place in Tenant's songs. Each piece seems to glide along, with natural effort. Everything - the voice, the lyrics, the instruments - is light-spirited, and though the songs often skirt the fringes of country music, they escape the gravitational pull of specific genre conventions.”

"From start to end, Jeremy Bass has infused himself into every track. The songs are good. The lyrics are good. His voice is good."
