Damien Jurado

Damien Jurado is a indie folk singer/songwriter from Seattle who launched his career in the mid-1990s, releasing a number of lo-fi, bedroom recordings on his own cassette-only label, Casa Recordings. After releasing a good amount of material and becoming a fairly recognizable member of the Seattle music scene, he was signed to the prominent indie label Sub Pop Records and released his debut full length, Waters Ave S, in 1997. Having continued to maintain a prolific recording schedule as well as a fairly busy touring regime, Jurado has grown to be regarded as a respected musician who has managed to hold onto his dignity over his long spanning career.
