Jack Schneider

Born from a string of unlikely coincidences, chance encounters, and surprise reunions, Jack Schneider’s stirring new album, Streets of September, is more than just a work of serendipity, it’s a deeply personal reflection on growth, change, and mortality from a master craftsman with an almost religious reverence for words and music. The songs are warm and timeless, harkening back to ’70s troubadours like James Taylor and John Denver, and the performances are raw and spacious, captured live to tape with producer/engineer Matt Andrews (T Bone Burnett, Old Crow Medicine Show) and an all-star band. The result is a touching tribute to the people and places that shaped Schneider’s journey over the last ten tumultuous years, a meant-to-be mixture of profoundly honest original material and revelatory interpretations that stand as a testament to the enduring power of storytelling in the face of loss and transcendence.

A Georgia native, Schneider got his start as a session guitarist while studying at the Clive Davis Institute at NYU. During breaks from school, he began traveling to Nashville, where he landed a summer job at Gruhn guitars and met Vince Gill, who would later invite him to join his touring band. In 2022, Schneider released his critically acclaimed debut, Best Be On My Way (which featured Gill along with David Rawlings and Stuart Duncan among others), and toured the country sharing bills with the likes of Gordon Lightfoot, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and Ricky Skaggs.
