Jerrod Niemann Biography

Jerrod Niemann was born in 1979 in Harper, Kansas. As a young man, Niemann learned to play the guitar and began performing in competitions. After graduating from high school, Jerrod began his college studies but continued to perform in local bars and clubs. His debut album, Long Hard Road, was self-released in 1999.

The year after releasing his album, Jerrod Niemann moved to Nashville and established the band Kane. Kane continued to tour regularly and Jerrod continued to seek opportunities for a recording contract. That opportunity finally came in 2010, when Niemann signed to Arista Nashville and released the single “Lover, Lover.” The song became Jerrod’s first single to eventually hit the number one spot on the country charts. Shortly after, Niemann released Judge Jerrod & the Hung Jury, his debut album, and released three more singles, “What Do You Want,” “One More Drinkin’ Song,” and “Shinin’ on Me.” All three songs charted well.

In addition to his own music, Jerrod Niemann is an accomplished songwriter who began writing before he was in his teens. Shortly after the new millennium, and even before he secured his own recording contract, Jerrod Niemann co-wrote a number of songs for Garth Brooks, and he has in addition written music for such notables as Neal McCoy, Zona Jones, Jamey Johnson, and Julie Roberts.

Jerrod Niemann’s career is definitely one on the rise. His second album, Free the Music (featuring the single “Only God Could Love You More”), was released in 2012. Niemann continues with plans for future albums and performances.
