Hi. We're Jayber Crow. Pete is in Washington and Zach is in Indiana, but we still get together to make music, so keep your ears open.
If you've got a show you'd like us to play, please let us know. We don't check this site as often as we once did, however, so please email zach@jaybercrow.com

"I have nothing bad to say about this album [Two Short Storeis], and every second that you spend not owning a copy is a second you're wasting." April Wright, MFR
"In many ways, listening to Jayber Crow makes me homesick (for the Midwest). Makes me nostalgic." --The Late Greats
"[O My God When I Drop Dead] is a spring weekend song, plain and simple. It's coffee, sunshine, and the sound of everything thawing." --music.for-robots.com
"Jayber Crow is what your ears drink because they can't drink hot tea: warm and inviting, and possibly good for you." --Carma Nibarger, Nuvo: Indy's Alternative Voice
"[The Farmer and the Nomad gives] the sense that these two just sat down on any given back porch (overlooking an Iowa cornfield, presumably) with their instruments and equipment and hit "record." The results are breathtaking..." --Matthew R. Perrine, Duluth Budgeteer News
"Jayber Crow is one-of-a-kind." --Bethany Prosseda, The Scarlet and Black
Dear Peter, you guys played with the floorbirds! thats awesome, i wish i would've made it to a show.. but anyways your father told me about you moving out west, and that Zach your still in indiana? i hope this doesn't mean you two will stop creating music, and if it does. i hope that you one day meet again and do what you do best. Always, Al Trusty

Fantastic show in Grinnell on Sunday! You guys seemed to be having such a great time and it was a pleasure to hear your music! Not to mention that the entire campus was talking about your bike riding expedition the next day...
Take care and enjoy the rest of tour! Hope to see you back here soon!
I watched the video of the dude gettin shot out of the cannon, and by the look on Zach's face i think he felt the same way I did.

Hi Zach and Pete! I hope you guys are enjoying the rest of your tour. Just wanted to let you know that I chatted with Mr. Sims today and he's going to mail your check on Monday. Also that bar of chocolate you guys left me was really good! Thanks! Also thanks for a great show, on behalf of Bob's. Love, Katy

I couldn't really calm down after the show...i was bouncing around at Denny's with my feet stomping and saying "zach, pete, zach, pete, tamborine, stomp, tamborine, stomp" cuz y'know...you signed my shoes. (sorry, i got over-excited maybe) Namaste! -melissa
Hey! It was so fun to see you guys Thursday night. What a great show! I hope you enjoyed your Debbie's Kitchen breakfast--full of snow and Fergus-goodness. :)
hey this is Alec Trusty, Pete, your dad has been playin your new CD in choir and i'm very impressed! you guys are really taking off with your music and it all sounds amazing. I'm lookin forward to the show tommorow!
An American Crow...that was so nice of you guys to write a song about me. Of course, I'll be expecting royalties, but we can talk about that another time.
Music is fantastic and I hope you're both doing well!
