About Jerry Haines

Jerry Haines is a Solo/Singer/Songwriter Folk Act who has been making a living playing festivals, fairs, colleges, concert series, and Coffee Houses throughout the Mid-Atlantic full time for the past 24 years.

His style would fall in the Folk/Contemporary Folk category. He finger picks most of his songs on guitar and adds strong blends of harmonica. Jerry's well thought out 'from the heart' lyrics draw on day to day life, love, loss, happiness, and sadness that are easy for people to understand and relate to.

Jerry also plays an autoharp that offers its beautiful, distinctive, "Old Time" sound and accompanies himself on harmonica at times. Pretty, flowing waltzes to lively paced reels and jigs. What a sound!

Jerry's music is a great asset for any musical event! Jerry has two CD's to his credit, "Hope the Next Town is Mine" is an earlier recording done by himself on guitars, harmonicas, autoharp, and vocals. "Into My Life" is his recent release and is a little more contemporary studio recording. Tasty arrangements and talented accomplished musicians surround Jerry on this all original project.

Jerry is a wonderful, warm, entertainer and excellent songwriter/performer with a good quality, down to earth personality.
