Jeremy Fisher (born Jeremy Binns; December 15, 1976) is a Canadian singer-songwriter. Born in Hamilton, Ontario, Jeremy Fisher is one of the best folk singer-songwriters of his generation. Jeremy Fisher is a 4-time JUNO-nominated folk-pop singer-songwriter based in Ottawa. Fisher is based in Ottawa, Ontario, and was previously based on Vancouver Island, B.C., Montreal, Quebec, and in Seattle, Washington, US. Fisher's work is heavily influenced by folk and blues music, and his songs feature accompaniment by acoustic guitar, slide guitar and harmonica. The pop-folk singer-songwriter has been making music since 2001 and has toured across Canada, the US, Australia, and Japan. "Let It Shine," his first album on a major label (Sony BMG Music Canada), was released on October 12, 2004. "High School," the second single from the album, won wide airplay on Canadian commercial radio and music television in early 2005. His third album, entitled "Goodbye Blue Monday," with fellow Canadian Hawksley Workman, was released on March 27, 2007, by his new record label, Aquarius Records. A breakout release, the album was jump-started by a homemade stop-motion animation for the single "Cigarette" which gained widespread attention. He has released 6 studio albums and his music has been featured on radio, in film ("The Big Year," "Our Idiot Brother"), commercials (Volkswagen, American Airlines), and as main title TV themes (Disney, Global). Jeremy Fisher's whimsical songwriting, warm vocal delivery, and ability to craft memorable folk-pop melodies have made him a favorite on Canadian radio and at festivals across North America.
