After departing The McLovins, Jeffrey honed his skills as a session and studio guitarist, providing guitar for seasoned performers such as Matt Cusson (Cee Lo Green) and Will Evans (Barefoot Truth).
As a college student at the University of Rochester, Jeff studied jazz guitar with Eastman professor and musician Bob Sneider (Chuck Mangione), where he learned how to play like a “jazz cat”.
