Jeris Johnson was not born in a manger, but he is the Future of Rock! Jeris has sung and played multiple instruments doing rock and metal since he was eleven years old. He co- produces and co-writes all his music, which incorporates elements of many genres.

Jeris has only released music for the last four years, and he already has two gold singles, one for his viral smash “Damn” and the other for his brilliant collab with Papa Roach on the 20th anniversary version of “Last Resort”. “When The Darkness Comes”, the first single from his 2024 album Dragonborn, was a viral and streaming hit and is still getting 60k streams a day on Spotify. That song reached Top 30 on the Active Rock Radio chart, as well as being the most played song on Octane for a couple weeks and #27 on the 2024 Billboard Year End Hard Rock Chart.

Jeris has done high profile collabs with Papa Roach, BMTH, Chad Kroeger and Zillakami. He’s also an amazing songwriter, and in fact he co-wrote the Falling In Reverse and Jelly Roll Active Rock Radio and streaming smash “All My Life.”

He has already been on tour with Falling in Reverse (twice), Korn and Evanescence and played every meaningful rock festival. Last fall he played his first national headlining tour with multiple sold-out dates.

For nearly a decade, Butcher Babies have been crushing stages worldwide with their vicious live performance and explosive energy. Their stage presence is a hypnotic spectacle that leaves audiences hungry for more. Frontwomen Heidi Shepherd and Carla Harvey, guitarist Henry Flury, bassist Jason Klein and drummer Chase Brickenden juxtapose brutal, aggressive riffs with beautiful melodies that wail with emotional redemption. 

Hailing from the City Of Angels, Butcher Babies aided in the jubilant revival of the Metal scene on the Sunset Strip. While gaining attention from several record labels the band signed a worldwide deal with Century Media Records in December 2012. Less than a year later, July 2013, they released their debut album GOLIATH, produced by Josh Wilbur (Gojira, Lamb of God, Hatebreed). Followed by their highly anticipated sophomore headbanger, TAKE IT LIKE A MAN, August 2015, produced by Logan Mader (FFDP, Gojira, Soulfly). 

The evolution continues as the band is set to release their third full studio album, October 27, 2017, LILITH, produced by Steve Evetts (Suicide Silence, Dillinger Escape Plan, The Cure). With three albums and two EPs under their belt, Butcher Babies have reached a new level of maturity solidifying a triumphant return after a brief creative hiatus to write and rebuild. LILITH opens with a kick right to the teeth with the aggressive Burn the Straw Man, then drips with sensuality on tracks like Headspin and The Huntsman, pairing riveting guitars with velvet vocal harmonies. This album runs the gamut between exploring the dark roots of lust and the high energy thrash hijinks that Butcher Babies have become known and loved for.

Butcher Babies have toured relentlessly among the likes of Megadeth, Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson, Five Finger Death Punch, Danzig, In This Moment, Cradle of Filth, Black Label Society, etc; played music fests including Mayhem, Download (UK), Hellfest (France), Knotfest (US & Japan), Hell and Heaven(Mexico), Rock on The Range, Louder Than Life, Aftershock, Welcome to Rockville, etc. and appeared in the film Alleluia! : The Devils Carnival.
