Album Notes

The writing for these original songs began back in 2003, when Jeff developed the concept for a blues-based band and album. The idea was shelved until mid-2004, when the Grady Darrow Cancer Fund called on Jeff to submit an original song for the CD Dreams in G, which also featured local artists including Jimmy Lloyd Rea, Mike Mallory, Al “Too Loud” MacLeod, the Grande Ronde Blues Band and Terry LaMont.

Jeff went to work with producer and guitarist Christopher Bechtel at his locally owned and operated studio, Digital Whispers, to record four tracks for possible submission. The CD featured two original cuts: “Give The Devil His Due” and a reworked song originally titled “Drama Queen,” which became “TJ Don’t Live Here No More.” While recording those songs, the idea for a new album and band came into play, setting off a 10-month stint in the studio.

The album features a variety of local talent: Jeff on guitar, bass guitar and lead vocals, Christopher Bechtel on guitar, Jamie Werner on bass guitar, “Shady” Grady Darrow on harmonica, Scott Arnson on guitar, Deborah Kaye Rudd on background vocals and co-lead vocals on “Tied To Be True,” and Meegan Foster on co-lead vocals on “Can’t Get Close To You.”
