Jeff started learning the guitar at age 7. By 13, he was working with older musicians, playing dances, bars and fraternity parties. He honed his skills on the road with club bands, playing 6 sets a night, 6 nights a week, before ending up in L.A. and then Nashville. There, he gained experience recording and touring with various artists. When he and his wife began to have children, Jeff decided to leave the road and the music industry to be a dad. The next 26 years would be spent in the cattle business. "In 2013, I stopped at a music store that had all of these Martin guitars. I pulled one off the wall and started playing it and couldn’t stop. I bought it there and then. As I began practicing at home, songs just started coming out of me.” His first album, "Here's Your Hat” was released in 2015. In 2018 , "Carry Me Back" was critically acclaimed in Americana Highways, Making a Scene Magazine, Wide Open Country, and Country Std. Time. His story telling and laid back manner has delighted audiences of all sizes, leaving folks feeling like they have been entertained on their back porch by an old friend.
