Jerry Cantrell Wiki Biography
- Jerry Fulton Cantrell Jr. was born in Tacoma, Washington, USA, on 18 March 1966.
- He is a musician, best known for the rock band Alice in Chains as the lead vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter.
- He also has a solo career, many albums have been released, and all his efforts have contributed to bringing his net worth where it is today.

- He helped produce five studio albums for Alice in Chains and also released two of his own solo albums.
- He has worked with other movies and other musicians as well.
- Growing up, Jerry grew up listening to country music, but when he was a teenager, he gradually became interested in rock and purchased his first guitar, but did not begin to learn it seriously until he was 17.
- He was a member of his high school choir before that, winning several awards; he became the president of the choir, and he was also invited to basketball games and competitions.
- Jerry worked as the lead guitarist and the band’s co-vocalist as part of Alice in Chains.
- They would produce three studio albums, with two becoming gold-certified and growing their success as well as their net worth.

- The album attracted critical acclaim and contained songs that were used in the “Spider-Man” soundtrack.
- In 2006, Jerry began working on a third album but has not yet released it, which may be due to the fact that Alice in Chains has again become involved.

Jerry Cantrell Quotes
- There’s this dark, sarcastic humor that’s there if you know the band [‘Alice in Chains’]. A lot of people don’t of course, and that’s completely fine. It’s kind of comforting to have this separate public persona from the harsh lyrical content we’re known for. Definitely there’s not a lot of fluff in what we do.
- We’re in an interesting place right now. You don’t expect to get to old age when you’re a young musician, especially with the whole music and reality of live fast, die young, sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll. I mean, I’m in it until I blow up, don’t get me wrong. It’s pretty cool to stick around. I’m grateful to have made it through, and not ashamed of owning everything I did, good and bad.
