Barefoot Jerry Faces Slow Rise From Nashville Sheltered Scene
Barefoot Jerry, a six man rock group based in Nashville, struggles with poor promotion and internal turnover as they chase national recognition. Led by Wayne Moss, the band blends hard rock, country rock and piano boogie, aiming for a wide live show experience. Their next album is due in late 1973 after Moss's move from sideman sessions with Dylan and Baez. The group has performed on stage only four times in five years despite two strong albums.
