Other Artists

Although raised by a piano teacher/church organist, Jeffrey (for the most part) is a self-taught musician/composer.

He began playing drums at age nine, then picked up guitar and piano in his teen years and began writing instrumentals.

Over the years, accordion, toy piano, electric piano, chord organs, glockenspiel, melodica, banjo and other noise makers have worked their way into his repertoire.

Influences:

Jeffreyˇ¦s love of European cinema led him to the composers: Michael Nyman, Nino Rota and Ennio Morricone.

Other artists that have influenced his work include: Tom Waits, Harry Partch, Captain Beefheart, Nick Cave, Kurt Weill, John Zorn, Moondog and Edith Piaf.

Gypsy, musette, jazz and surf music have also contributed to his unique sound.
