The Jerrys, a British-influenced guitar-pop band from Chicago, Illinois, are the sounds of Jerry Schwartz, who writes, plays, sings, and produces their music. Free music streaming and more are available at Schwartz's site for those interested. He's my Uncle and has always been one of my primary influences.
