Moontown Brewing Company is thrilled to welcome The Jeremiah Johnson Band on Friday, June 14th for their 2nd show at our brewery.
The midwest has been gifted with a great new torch-bearer of Southern rock blues in Jeremiah Johnson. Born and raised in St. Louis, Johnson has a rich blues heritage that runs as deep as the Mississippi. He picked up the guitar at the age of six, and after spending 10 years as a young man in Texas, has came home to roost with a bit of that desert grit on his fingers, hot sauce on his breath, and a working man’s aesthetic — all of which carry through to his songwriting and performance.
“Jeremiah Johnson delivers biting blues rock with his commanding guitar attack bolstered by his hearty pipes and a crack backing band… This is grade ‘A’ primo stuff.”
— Blues Blast Magazine 8/30/2018
“Jeremiah Johnson is the real deal, a honky-tonk hero for the blues just like Waylon was for outlaw country.”
— Goldmine Magazine – October 2018
“Jeremiah Johnson serves it up hard and nasty, St Louis juke joint blues punctuated by Johnson’s piercing Albert King riffs. ”
— Grant Britt – Blues Blast Magazine 1/19/2019

With the release of their sixth album, the Jeremiah Johnson Band delivers their material from a place of confident self-awareness, and the charts have rewarded their effort: they have received a #5 billboard chart ranking and received two nominations for both “Best Contemporary Blues Album” and “Best Funk Song” from the Independent Blues Awards.
