Harmon proved a solo artist can excite a large crowd. His energy along with down-home charm, unique vocals, across the board lyrics, natural humor,and hot acoustic guitar playing gave the audience a chance to see a unique and very entertaining performer from the southern mountains of America. Harmon's show was one of a true artist in every sense of the word.

It’s a fair bet you haven’t heard the Jack Tales from anyone like Jerry Harmon,nor is it likely that you have heard a wider range of original lyrics.

There are many people who put storytelling and theatre in the same basket,but not so with Jerry Harmon. Harmon' storytelling in the Appalachian dialect of old is not something from someone with a pair of overalls, and a fake dialect. it is obvious when he performs that Harmons speech is  natural. 

The Jack Tales were passed to Jerry from his grandfather by a fireplace in what Harmon describes as "A little wood framed house in a hollar." These historical tales were first told in America by the Harmon family in the Appalachian Mountains of Western North Carolina in the early 1800's by Council Harmon. Council Harmon was Jerry's great great grandfather.The Jack Tales have been passed through the Harmon family for over two hundred years.
