JD CROSSTOWN

JD Crosstown is a singer-songwriter and guitarist hailing from Neyaashiinigmiing (Chippewas of Nawash Unceded Territory) in Ontario. He developed an early appreciation for folk, country, and blues, drawing inspiration from the traditions that came before him while finding his own voice through the places, people, and experiences that have shaped his life.

Crosstown writes songs that feel lived-in rather than borrowed from the past. From fingerpicked folk to country waltzes and blues-tinged arrangements, his music explores the complexities of love, loss, and the open road with an honest, unvarnished approach. Timeless in its influences but distinctly his own, his songwriting captures big feelings in simple, striking words.

A seasoned live performer, Crosstown has played venues and festivals across Canada and Europe, opening for acclaimed Canadian artists including The Sadies, Shakura S’Aida, Aysanabee, Julian Taylor, and Al Tuck. He has also toured extensively alongside singer-songwriter Matt Epp, continuing to build an international audience.

In May 2025, Crosstown released his debut album, Takin’ My Time, featuring 11 original tracks. The album is available on all major streaming platforms and Bandcamp, where listeners can enjoy it in high fidelity while supporting the artist directly.
