His songs are piano driven with inspiration taken from French impressionistic and electronic music, which blend together to create a sound unlike any sound out there today. The first single “The Thief” (from self-titled) represents the incredible sound Jeremy Larson is able to create through the use of his piano. The song builds up to its climatic ending which captures the true essence and talent of Jeremy Larson.
Jeremy recorded a live DVD called "An Evening with Jeremy Larson and Friends" featuring an orchestra of local musicians and Darren King (Mute Math) as one of 3 percussionists. The DVD will be available as a free download with the album pre-order on Jeremy's online store.

Wintersong
Jeremy Larson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The splinter of a love that wouldn't die
Made a snow bed to sleep
You survived
When the bitter cold of winter came inside
Turned to ice
Shattered all (?)
What I've done
Oh God, What have I done
Cause I don't know
It's lost to me
It's gone in you
Shattered bones, now you are underneath my skin
While you are over me
Now my dear
The shadow flees from underneath your feet
And your song has captured all your enemies
Now my love
Everything that moves is
Singing out your name
Oh my love
All the beauty of the seasons
Calling you out
You can hear
The melody and song in everything
It's singing out loud and clear
It's not so bad
It's not so bad
Now my dear
The shadow flees from underneath your feet
And your song has captured all your enemies
Now my love
Everything that moves is
Singing out your name
Oh my love
All the beauty of the seasons
Calling you out
The lyrics of Jeremy Larson's song "Wintersong" contain vivid imagery of the singer's emotional turmoil after a past relationship. The opening lines describe the arrival of the person who broke the singer's heart and left a lasting impact, as represented by the "splinter of a love that wouldn't die." The imagery of "made a snow bed to sleep" could be interpreted as the singer trying to bury their feelings and cope with the pain.
As the song progresses, the bitterness and pain intensify with the metaphor of winter cold turning to ice and shattering something significant. The repetition of "What I've done, oh God, what have I done" suggests regret and self-blame for the relationship's failure. The line "shattered bones, now you are underneath my skin while you are over me" could imply that despite the singer trying to move on, their memories and feelings of the past are still haunting them.
The second half of "Wintersong" takes a turn towards a hopeful and optimistic tone. The shadows fleeing from underneath the person's feet and their song capturing enemies could represent the person healing and overcoming their past pain. The imagery of "everything that moves is singing out your name" and "the beauty of the seasons calling you out" could be interpreted as a newfound appreciation for life and the beauty it has to offer.
Overall, "Wintersong" paints a vivid picture of the emotional journey of healing after a past relationship. The use of metaphors and imagery allows the listener to connect with the intense emotions conveyed in the song, and the shift towards hope and optimism provides a sense of closure and resolution.
