Sizzling BBQ-flavored electricity & more from the roadhouses and ice houses of Texas, Louisiana and beyond with more soul than a month of Sundays and guaranteed to get you to where you're going in style - 11 piece band from Austin, playing blues & funk with a whole lotta attitude.

Born in St. Louis, veteran Austin, Texas artist and BMI songwriter Jeff Michaels is a virtuoso guitarist whose artistry spans the realms of blues, jazz and funk. As a bandleader and as a musician, Jeff is a sound innovator with a passion for pushing creative boundaries and exploring movement and change. Before he was 14, somehow wound up learning the ropes in ice houses near the bayous and redneck towns in and around Houston playing blues and country, eventually graduating to Austin and Central Texas, where he remains today. A musicians' musician, he's written and played with some primo writers, artists and producers. Jeff signed with Cherry Lane Music Publishing in the early 90's, is a current BMI artist and to date has well over 200 songs to his credit.

These days, time is spent writing and recording in his understated "shack out back" (essentially a very well equipped large analog recording studio crammed into a small space), along with his 1938 Mathushek piano, vintage tube amps and guitars, antique mics and mic pres. He's an admitted 'gear hound' and has been running the analog console online forums for over 20 years, as well as collecting guitars and amps from the 60's and 70's. Most of this stuff, especially guitars, he's had for decades, but he's always on the hunt for interesting gear, notably oddball mics and weird mic pres. "Somebody please stop me - my wife would appreciate it, and I really don't have the room."

"Jeff Michaels is a very interesting artist that more people should know about, if only for his guitar work alone." - Blues & Jazz Magazine
