“Unemployed and Highly Annoyed” is Jeremiah Johnson on lead vocals and guitars; Paul Niehaus IV on bass, keys and backing vocals; Tony Antonelli on drums, percussion and backing vocals. Video was produced by Dan Waterman. Jeremiah Johnson connects with his fans for good reason, and this shows exactly why. With a blend of songwriting timeliness, killer grooves, and powerful delivery, plus, he has true insight: “You can’t call it freedom if you don’t have a choice” is as profound a line as it gets.
Watching the news networks and social media, you can easily get sucked into what I call the “COVID-19 Paranoia Vortex of Fear”. I have been trying to keep a positive attitude while doing everything I can to keep my head above water and stay healthy. But that can be hard when the world seems to have gone mad. I found myself screaming out loud, “Calm the hell down!”, “Stop freaking out!” and “Have a little faith, things are gonna come around.” I think this is something most of us can relate with. Crank it up and have a little fun! – Jeremiah Johnson
