Country singer Jelly Roll was world’s away from his southern roots during a high-end Hamptons soiree Saturday with Hollywood elites in attendance at packed show.
Jelly Roll knows music can bring people together from all walks of life, and he proved it Saturday night.
The country artist who overcame a troubled past performed a headlining gig for a lucky few hundred guests on behalf of SiriusXM, live from Stephen Talkhouse in the Hamptons on Saturday night. Jelly Roll, whose full name is Jason Bradley DeFord, mingled with the stars who turned up in droves to see his show, including Howard Stern, Bradley Cooper, Jon Hamm and Jimmy Fallon.
The “Son of a Sinner” singer was introduced to the stage by the SmartLess hosts, Jason Bateman, Will Arnett and Sean Hayes, who sat down for a live podcast taping with Howard Stern prior to the show.
“I never would have thought my fat, white-trash a– would be in the Hamptons”, Jelly Roll told the audience, according to Page Six. “This is an incredible scene.”
He performed a few of his hits, including “I’m not OK” and “Need a Favor”, before belting out a couple of cover songs, including “Good Riddance”, “Friends in Low Places” and “(Sittin’ On) the Dock of the Bay.
