Chanteur Country US
né Waylon Albright Jennings, le 19 Mai 1979
à Nashville (Tennessee). Shooter Jennings est le fils de
Waylon Jennings et de
Jessi Colter.
The only
son of country legends
Waylon Jennings and
Jessi Colter, Shooter
Jennings literally spent his childhood on a tour bus. Born Waylon Albright
Jennings, Shooter was playing drums by the time he was five years old and had
already begun taking piano lessons, only to break them off and follow his own
path to an understanding of the instrument. He discovered guitar at 14 and rock
& roll (particularly Southern rock and the loose-limbed hard rock of Guns N'
Roses) at 16. Soon he moved from Nashville to L.A., where he assembled a rock
band called Stargunn. Stargunn earned a strong local reputation for its live
shows, and enjoyed a six- or seven-year run on the L.A. circuit before Jennings
rediscovered his outlaw country roots and dissolved the band.
After a short stay in New York, where Jennings assembled material for a country
project, he returned to L.A. and put together a second band -- this time with
solid country roots -- which he named the .357s. Jennings and the band holed up
in the studio, eventually emerging with a rambunctious country album called Put
the O Back in Country, which was released in 2005 on Universal South Records.
Following in his father's footsteps, but with his own feisty, scrappy sense of
country, Jennings placed himself in a fine position to both explore that legacy
and carve out his own. A second album, Electric Rodeo (which was actually
recorded before Put the O Back in Country), appeared in 2006, followed by a live
set, Live at Irving Plaza, later in the year. Jennings' third solo effort, The
Wolf, was released in October 2007, featuring a cover of Dire Straits' "Walk of
Life" (whose composer, Mark Knopfler, had been a longtime family friend). A
month later, Jennings became a father. His girlfriend, actress Drea De Matteo,
gave birth to Alabama Gypsy Rose in November. He proposed to De Matteo in 2009
on-stage in Utica, New York. He renamed his backing band Hierophant for his
fourth studio album, Black Ribbons, a concept record produced by Dave Cobb. It
appeared early in 2010. Later in the year, the album was re-released in a
special edition entitled Black Ribbons: The Living Album. The second version was
sold on a USB flash drive in the shape of a tarot card. It featured the studio
record and live performances by Hierophant. In early 2011, Jennings and blogger
Adam Sheets came up with the idea of creating XXX, a new radio format that would
focus on insurgent country, rock, and hybrids of both, from new and established
artists, that fell far outside the narrow conceits of mainstream radio and were
thus ignored. It gained traction and a channel on Sirius/XM where both men
served as program hosts. Jennings also moved to New York City with De Matteo. He
and pianist Erik Deutsch formed a new band called the Triple Crown, and he
became a father for the second time in April, to Waylon Albert "Blackjack"
Jennings.
In urgent fashion, Jennings and the Triple Crown began recording; they released
the video/download-only single "Outlaw You," his screed against the country
music establishment. It reached the top spot on CMT's daily audience request
competition and stayed there until a dispute with his former label dictated it
be removed. The first official single from the forthcoming album, "The Deed and
the Dollar," again reached the top spot in the daily CMT request competition.
Jennings' fifth album, Family Man, followed soon after in March of 2012 -- minus
"Outlaw You."
His next album, The Other Life, was released a year later on his own Black
Country Rock label; it featured guest appearances from Patty Griffin, Scott H.
Biram, and Jim Dandy of Black Oak Arkansas. The Other Live, Jennings' second
live album, recorded during his 2013 tour and featuring many of the songs from
The Other Life, appeared early in 2014, again from Black Country Rock. In 2013,
BCR also released an EP in which Jennings performed a dark and atmospheric
reworking of "You Are My Sunshine" with
Jamey Johnson and former Marilyn Manson guitarist Twiggy Ramirez that was
originally recorded for the television series Sons of Anarchy. 2014 saw the
release of an EP, Don't Wait Up (For George), a tribute to his longtime friend
George Jones.
In early January 2016, Jennings announced a February release for Countach, a
collection of songs written and/or inspired by legendary producer Giorgio
Moroder. The nine-song set featured guest appearances from Marilyn Manson, Brandi
Carlile, Steve
Young, and video game pioneer Richard Garriott de Cayeux. 2016 also saw Jenningscollaborating
with Billy Don Burns on the EP A Night in Room 8, while he also reissued Black
Ribbons in recognition of that year's presidential race.
