Singer/songwriter Jeremy Fisher is based in Vancouver, British Columbia. Born Jeremy Binns, he was born and raised in Hamilton, Ontario, before moving on to perform in various projects. He self-released his first solo recording, Back Porch Spirituals, in 2001 and toured from Seattle, WA, to Halifax, Nova Scotia, on bicycle to promote it, also busking on the streets in between scheduled tour dates. This unorthodox approach helped him catch the ears of Sony's Canadian division, and his major-label debut, Let It Shine, was released on the imprint in 2004.
