Why Was Jelly Roll Pulled by US Coast Guard After Bash on the Bay Show? Find Out

As a die-hard fan of Jelly Roll, I must say his life story is as captivating as his music! The man who was once lost in the depths of substance abuse has transformed into a beacon of hope and inspiration. From performing at small gigs to sharing the stage with the legendary Eminem, Jelly Roll’s journey is nothing short of extraordinary.


Emerging artist Jelly Shot experienced an unexpected incident following his set at Bash on the Bay, when he crossed paths with the United States Coast Guard.

On August 24th, I took to my Instagram story to recount an exhilarating experience I had. This incident, as I described it, was nothing short of wild. Yet, I was grateful to have the county sheriff with us during this situation, which ultimately led to a smooth resolution. I want to express my appreciation for everyone’s concern, but I choose not to reveal the specific reasons behind our boat being stopped at this time.

Before the music festival, which takes place at the Put-in-Bay airport on South Bass Island, Ohio, Jelly Shot shared a video from a boat, expressing his excitement by saying, “I’ve never been to a concert that needs a boat ride; this is really awesome!”

In terms of his musical career, the artist recently expressed uncertainty about future plans during an interview. He hinted at potential opportunities outside music by saying, “Perhaps God has other plans for me, like acting or telling my story in a new way.” He also mentioned that he was considering various options and wanted to acquire new skills.

Jelly Roll expresses a desire to use his talent for something meaningful and is on the hunt for songs with a purpose. He declared, “When I attach a song to my name, I believe that for the first time in my career, it’s not about the financial gain.” This artist has moved beyond creating music solely for monetary reasons.

In 2003, Jelly Roll (originally named Jason DeFord) embarked on his singing journey, but it wasn’t until the releases of “Need a Favor” and “Son of a Sinner” that he truly gained recognition. Raised in Nashville, Tennessee, Jelly Roll grappled with addiction issues during his upbringing.

During his 2023 CMAs interview with Fox News Digital, he shared how music played a crucial role in shaping him into a better individual and enabling him to contribute positively to others in various ways. He firmly believes that without going through the experiences he had, he wouldn’t be the person he is today. Music provides him strength, a platform for expression, and lessons about transformation.

Recently, I had the honor of collaborating with rap legend Eminem on a track, and our joint effort titled “Somebody Save Me” has been gaining quite a buzz. On August 21st, we unveiled the music video for this powerful song on YouTube, which sparked such a positive response that it brought the song back to the Top 10 list on iTunes once again.
