Jeremy Loops is heading back to Australia – and in this Noise11 interview with Paul Cashmere, the South African artist opens up about the journey that’s brought him here.
After years away due to the pandemic, Loops reflects on how COVID reshaped his career, forcing him to record his third album Heard You Got Love remotely in what he describes as a “Dropbox album”. The experience pushed him to rethink how he creates music – and ultimately led him back to a more organic, human approach.
In this conversation, Jeremy discusses the challenges of making music in an increasingly AI-driven world, why he’s moving away from digital production shortcuts, and how he’s rediscovering the value of real instruments and live performance.
He also talks about his evolving live shows – where looping, spontaneity and audience interaction ensure no two performances are ever the same – and what fans can expect from his upcoming Australian tour, including songs from Feathers And Stone alongside favourites like Down South.
A major highlight is his collaboration with Ladysmith Black Mambazo, one of South Africa’s most revered musical groups. Jeremy shares how the partnership came together and reveals plans to bring their collaborative theatre show to international audiences.
From business school graduate to global touring artist, Jeremy Loops’ journey has been anything but conventional – and this interview captures an artist still evolving, still experimenting, and more committed than ever to keeping music real.
