Jerry Hannan November 23, 2012

San Rafael based singer-songwriter Jerry Hannan is one of the most talked-about performers in the San Francisco Bay Area. Often described as "shades of Dylan, John Prine and Van Morrison...very Americana with a faint Irish lilt," Hannan's songs (like those of Springsteen, Steve Earle and Cat Stevens) speak of everyday lives and the magic that people sometimes miss. He is a storyteller who loves nothing better than to sit around after a show and talk to people in the audience and hear some good stories. His irreverent, twisted style has been described as smart, often funny, sardonic in a good-natured way, dealing with issues like ecology, friendship, love and public drunkenness.
