Jerry Bryant

Bryant is a folksinger and songwriter from the state of Maine.

I am a finder, singer, and teacher of good songs, old and new. My repertoire of traditional ballads, chanteys, drinking songs, and bawdy verse is deep and wide, and I am a nationally-known scholar of maritime music. I have explored the depths of American, English, and Irish balladry, and brought back gems that are still hair-raisingly alive hundreds of years after they were created. Nothing gives me a bigger thrill than resurrecting an ancient song!
