If you aren’t familiar with Jeff, he is a native of Lamesa, Texas, near Lubbock where he grew up on a diet of edgy country, blues and rock ‘n’ roll. He started a band at age 12, and he eventually moved in the 80’s to Austin and played a variety of genres in a variety of bands. The 80’s decade was certainly not the music industry’s shining moment, so Jeff pursued a “real job” with the hope of returning to music. He was actually a successful trial lawyer in Texas for 10 years before deciding to return to music in 2000. (We lose one lawyer and gain back a great musician all at once- that’s a good day!!) He moved to Durango, Colorado to get away from the craziness he had been living in and gain musical inspiration. This must have worked as Jeff delivers a killer live performance with much of the material from his live show coming from his recently released CD Amen To The Blues. The CD, and live show, consists mostly of high-energy music Jeff calls “Texas Red Dirt Blues”.
