Jeremy Storch was born in New York City, and raised in the Jewish
heritage. Following high school, Jeremy co-founded the
very successful rock group called "The Vagrants." Jeremy was the songwriter, organist and vocalist for the
group.
Once "The Vagrants" disbanded, in 1968, RCA Records picked up Jeremy to
record and release two solo albums, "From a Naked Window" and "Forty Miles
Past Woodstock."
This
popularity and success led him further into the rock culture of the
sixties - including all the trappings of a typical rock star:
experimentation with and heavy use of various drugs and plunging into wild
parties and illicit affairs. In short, he became a prodigal son.
In 1970, Jeremy's
excessive lifestyle caught up with him and he died of a drug overdose on
the way to the hospital. In this death experience, God spoke to Jeremy
saying, "I am giving you back your life to do some work for Me!" As soon
as that was spoken, Jeremy awoke in a hospital bed.
Several years passed before Jeremy obeyed the voice he heard that evening.
He continued in the secular music field with Dave Mason, who recorded
Jeremy's song, "Spend Your Life With Me," and Eddie Money, who also
recorded one of Jeremy's songs, "Call On Me."
In 1978, Jeremy found himself in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, with a role in
the Passion Play that was presented annually by the city. He played one of
the two thieves on the cross. After hanging on the cross in front of 4,000
people for two nights, the Holy Spirit started working in Jeremy's heart.
After the evening performance, Jeremy retreated to a cabin in the woods
and he broke down and cried, realizing his sinfulness. In the middle of
that night he awoke and heard the same voice he had witnessed seven years
earlier, this time saying: "My son, your sins are forgiven, but go and sin
no more, for I have a brand new life for you." At that moment, Jeremy
totally dedicated his life to the Lord Yeshua (Jesus).
Jeremy has now been in ministry for over 25 years and uses his musical
ability for the Lord. He has recorded, arranged and produced several
albums: "Let Every Knee", "Hebrew Lord", "I Believe in Yeshua", "Praise
Your Name", "Behold the Bridegroom", "In Heavenly Places," "He Reigns,"
"On Mount Zion" and "In the Presence of the Lord." His new album, “All
Rise” was released in May 2010.
Jeremy is the
Rabbi, Cantor and worship leader of The Tabernacle, a rapidly growing
Messianic Jewish congregation meeting Friday evenings and Saturday
mornings in Branson, Missouri. He also ministers in other congregations by
giving musical concerts, leading praise and worship, teaching on the
Biblical Jewish roots of Christianity, and sharing his dynamic testimony.
His most recent ministry concert was at the regional Messianic Jewish
Alliance of America (MJAA) convention in Florida. He has made several
national television appearances, including "The New Jim Bakker Show,"
"Keeping in Truth," "Praise the Lord," "Jewish Jewels," and "Jewish
Voice" broadcasts. The international ministry "Jews for Jesus" has
published for worldwide distribution a Messianic Hymnal with many of
Jeremy's songs in it. These songs and many others that he has written are
now being used for praise and worship in congregations all around the
world, especially in the U.S., Israel, Europe and Latin America.
