When our relatives ask us the dreaded \u201cWhat are you doing after college?!\u201d, most of us don\u2019t reply with \u201cPutting my degree aside and going on a North American tour where the vast majority of the shows are sold out\u201d. Most of us don\u2019t even have a slight sense of what we will be doing. Most of us also are not Jeremy Zucker.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 22 year old graduate from Colorado College made his second to last stop of the Anything, Anywhere tour at U Street Music Hall <\/strong>this past Wednesday. With a sold out crowd excitedly chattering despite being squished and the front row lined with adoring fans clutching their phones in anticipation of snapping a shot of the young artist the night was all set for smooth sailing.<\/p>\n

But everyone has to pass a few tough tests before they can continue on their upwards trajectory. Making his way through a light structure shaped as a rectangle, Zucker began his performance with deafening cheers drowning out the initial notes of his opening song.<\/p>\n

As the song progressed, it became clear that his mic was barely allowing for his voice to be heard. Looking a bit confused, Zucker swiftly maneuvered to the back of the stage to address the issue.<\/p>\n

With the mic picking up his voice at full volume again, he apologized to the eager crowd,<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m so sorry guys, this has never happened to me\u2026\u201d Biting his lip and smiling, he continued,<\/p>\n

\"Jeremy<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSo this is my second to last show of the tour, and it\u2019s been wild. I just recently graduated from college where I was studying for biology for weeks on end and now I\u2019m here.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Jerry\u2019s technical difficulties weren\u2019t over quite yet\u2014midway into his third song, \u201cKeep My Head Afloat\u201d off of his 2016 release Motions<\/em> the mic cut out again. Running off stage after a few minutes of attempting to fix the mic again, the crowd passed the time chatting. As Zucker\u2019s drummer began playing a steady beat to build anticipation, the crowd started cheering,<\/p>\n

\u201cJerry! Jerry! Jerry!\u201d<\/p>\n

Running back on stage with a smile, Jerry breathed a huge sigh of relief as he received confirmation from his fans that his mic was back in commission. After successfully performing \u201cWeakness\u201d, a sleepy tune that builds into a bouncy electronic beat, he took a moment to address the crowd again.<\/p>\n

\u201cYo…that had me shook. I was so nervous, that\u2019s seriously never happened to me before.\u201d<\/p>\n

As he continued his performance and felt secure that his equipment would in fact, it became clear why Zucker has caught the attention of huge artists such as Blackbear <\/strong>and Lauv. <\/strong>Zucker has the maturity of a seasoned performer\u2014one that handles the unexpected with grace and turns it into a moment of connection with his fans. Here at DC Music Review, we are very excited to see where Zucker\u2019s career will continue to grow as he continues to navigate such a critical transitional period in his life.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
