The album went gold in South Africa, was named 'Album of the Year' by iTunes SA, won multiple awards including MTV Africa's Best Alternative Album 2015, and was described by 'Clash Magazine' as 'a dexterous, complex work, packed with subtle depths and sudden shifts'. He received raves from 'Red Bull Music', who said, 'Loops makes huge-sounding upbeat songs - a fusion of Mumford And Sons at their most anthemic and pan-global South African pop....' Jeremy recently released his sophomore record, 'Critical As Water', which was produced by Will Hicks (Ed Sheeran, Lily Allen, Bastille), on March 16. The album debuted at #1 on the SA iTunes charts and has charted Top Ten on the Alternative iTunes chart in major territories around the world including the UK, USA, and Canada, and he received the honor of being the cover star of the first ever 'New Music Friday South Africa' on Spotify. As an environmental activist (he co-founded Greenpop, a tree-planting organization that has planted over 85,000 trees in Southern Africa since its inception), he addresses issues affecting his home country in his music, and the new album features poignant songs shedding light on the water crisis in his hometown of Cape Town. To celebrate the release of the new album, Jeremy will be touring around the world and will be performing in select cities in the US and Canada in late April/early May. Jeremy previously toured the US in 2015 as support for Rebelution on their 'Winter Greens Tour', in addition to two headlining tours.
