With “a voice like a beacon of hope” (Seattle Times), vocalist Jimmie Herrod brings singular power and expressivity to his global career as a singer, songwriter, and entertainer on stage and screen.


Herrod first came to worldwide prominence as a finalist on the NBC nationally broadcast television show, “America’s Got Talent,” earning the rare “Golden Buzzer” recognition from actress Sofia Vargara and returning the following year on the AGT All-Stars series.


As a solo artist, Herrod has appeared to critical and audience acclaim with the National Symphony Orchestra (NSO) at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts across multiple engagements, and with the symphony orchestras of San Francisco, Houston, St. Louis, Nashville, Bozeman, and Oregon, including as a featured soloist for the globally televised PBS “Joni Mitchell Songbook” concert at The Kennedy Center with the NSO, where he shared the stage with musical luminaries like Renee Fleming, Lalah Hathaway, Raul Midon, and Aoife O’Donovan. His appearance was lauded by Arts Fuse as "a revelation" and "the show's high point."


Traversing many musical styles and genres in many languages, including jazz, pop, funk, Broadway, and his own original songs, Herrod has headlined concerts at The McCallum Theatre (Palm Desert, CA), The Luxor Theater (Las Vegas), The Royal Room, La Jolla Music Society, and Portland’s Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. Since 2017 he's toured to hundreds of venues across the globe as a featured vocalist with world-pop band Pink Martini and appears on several albums and EP's with the band.


With two solo EP’s under his belt – his debut “Falling in Love and Learning to Love Myself” and 2022’s “Elated” – Herrod’s singular style and unique voice is poised to make an ever-larger impact in the world of music and entertainment.


Recent appearances include a star turn as Angel in the world premiere symphonic version of the musical “Rent” at The Kennedy Center with conductor Steven Reinecke, where his performance was lauded by Maryland Theatre Guide as “ebullient” and by Broadway World as “moving, textured, and sensitive." His 2023-24 season highlights included global touring dates from Paris to Seattle with acclaimed jazz pianist Cedric Hanriot, headlining the inaugural Seaside Jazz & Blues Festival, debuting a new symphonic pops show as co-headliner with vocalist Storm Large, and beginning work on his forthcoming full-length jazz album, scheduled to be released in winter of 2024.

Herrod is an alum of the Cornish College of the Arts and Portland State University.
