被纽约时报称为美式摇滚王子的 Jackie Greene 风格完美融合乡村、布鲁斯、爵士、摇滚和传统民谣，仅靠一把吉他和口琴的现场表演，Greene 迅速获得了新时代Bob Dylan 的称号，成功地向新的音乐方向进军。 他精通多种乐器，在先前的专辑中都是一人完成全部，但是这次他为专辑特地招来了一支了不得的由美式/根源摇滚方面的高手组成的队伍，在他们之中有 Los Lobos 的David Hidalgo 和 Steve Berlin，鼓手 Pete Thomas，贝司手 Davey Farragher 和铁吉他演奏方面的权威 Greg Leisz。 Greene 的专辑了跨越了人类的原始性冲动和对高尚的情操的背叛，始终表现了一种人文关怀，倒是看不到一点鬼气在里面。Discovered at an open mike when Dig Music's owner happened to be there, singer/songwriter Jackie Greene is a captivating performer who works well in simple, sparse environments. Signing to the label almost immediately, the California native worked countless clubs and bars before his discovery, a fact made more interesting when it's considered that he was a teenager during that time. A multi-instrumentalist, Greene played most of the instruments on his debut record, Gone Wanderin'. A soulful bit of roots music, the album brought him to a national audience and sprung him into a college tour during the fall of 2002. Rusty Nails, a collection of material from 2001, was released by Dig Records in 2003, followed by the live-in-the-studio DVD video Broken Hearts Dusty Roads in 2004. Sweet Somewhere Bound appeared on Dig later that same year, and was licensed to Verve Records, which reissued it in 2005. His first proper album for Verve, American Myth, appeared in 2006.
