From the New York Times this is the interview.
I'm David Marchese.
I think we've all had the experience of feeling pretty low and wanting to put on a song.
It doesn't necessarily fix things, but the song can have the effect of feeling like someone has reached out and put a hand on our shoulder.
For me, the musicians who do that are Joni Mitchell or Prince princess.
Sometimes it's nothing in April is one I listen to a lot when things are rough.
But for many Americans today, the artist who they're turning to in those moments is jelly Roll.
Jelly Roll's real name is Jason D.
Ford, and he's the rare singer who's been able to cross over on the pop, rock and country charts, which means a ton of different types of people are really into his music.
And his songs are almost all about struggling to get by, which is something he knows about.
He's a burly face, tattooed singer from Antioch, Tennessee, and he was in and out of prison starting as a teenager and into his mid twenties.
He's dealt with loss and addiction and years of professional frustration.
But in 2021, when he was 36, his music career finally started taking off.
Jelly Roll is launching a cross country headlining arena tour this month and has a new, highly anticipated album coming in the fall.
He was also nominated for the best new artist award at the Grammys this year, but he's become something more than just a star.
He's also a figure of hope.
