Event information
Jerry has often expressed a wish to play a solo show in the Swiss Cottage. His wish is our command!
From recent dates with Steve Earle and festival appearances, Jerry Leger has stayed busy since the October 2023 release of his latest album Donlands. The Mark Howard (Lucinda Williams, Bob Dylan, Tom Waits) produced record came out on Cowboy Junkies label, and was greeted with rave reviews from UK's Uncut Magazine and Rolling Stone Europe. Leger toured those parts of the world in support of Donlands as well as select Canadian dates, which included his debut on the historic Massey Hall stage in Toronto and a headlining show in its new room, TD Music Hall. One of the most respected singer-songwriters around, Ron Sexsmith says “Leger has that spark in him that all the great songwriters have. He's the real deal.” For Jerry, the search for the elusive creative spark remains never-ending, but there are always new routes to explore in getting to it. With Donlands, he has made an album that stands as one of the peak moments in an already towering body of work.
