Secession

Born and raised in South Carolina, the South has a special place in Jeff's heart. This patriotism shines through in these songs, as does his intellect regarding current international events. All of the songs on this album were created, recorded and mastered in his own studio, the Soul Shack, in Gaffney, SC. Wanting a way to continue making music, but not be away from his wife and seven children, the studio seemed a great way to do it. Without outside pressures, Jeff was able to create works of art that truly express himself, and master them until just right.
