Glenn Jones is a unique voice working in the decades-long tradition of American Primitivism.
A constant member of Bostons’s Cul De Sac, Jones has collaborated with the finest of the genre, from Jack Rose to John Fahey.
His sense for story telling, his technical expertise and his expressive playing make him a living giant of the Takoma School.

At the moment Glenn is finishing an album with drummer Chris Corsano and monologist David Greenberger of The Duplex Planet.
Press: “After what felt like a long moment of silence for the late Jack Rose, the last two years have been an embarrassment of riches for the American Primitive guitar style.

This is thriving music, set in the John Fahey tradition while still moving outward. Glenn Jones is one of its most faithful practitioners.
Each of his records is somehow more understated and astonishing than the last. On My Garden State, every pluck and strum is methodical, yet each is a quiet wonder.” -Lars Gotrich for NPR
