High
energy, high caliber music
for
pubs, clubs, restaurants, corporate receptions and special
events.
Powerful vocal
delivery,
skilled musicianship, years of experience,
and a huge
repertoire combine in a seasoned performer
with the ability to craft
shows that appeal to a variety of audiences.
Jeff
Sherman plays vintage pop songs, classic rock anthems, blues/rock
standards,
easy-listening ballads, country classics, and traditional
roots/folk music, all
with energy, enthusiasm, professionalism, and style.
Jeff’s
sophisticated approach to guitar/vocal performance has won him the
respect of discerning audiences throughout Northeast Ohio. In
addition to his monthly appearances at Fat Fish Blue and Brother's
Lounge in Cleveland, he has
held longstanding engagements at many of the area’s most
popular
and successful establishments, including The Claddagh Irish
Pub at
Legacy Village, the Oaks Lakeside Restaurant in
Chippewa, Don's Pomeroy House
in Strongsville, the John Christ Winery in Avon Lake, the
Jackalope Lakeside in Lorain, Mel's Crow's Nest on Catawba
Island, and the Crew's Nest
on Put-in-Bay Island.
He has performed opening concert sets for the band
Wishbone Ash, for Grammy-nominated songwriter Bill Morrissey, and for
rockabilly legend Commander Cody, and has been featured in the
Lakewood Public Library's "Sunday with Friends" Concert Series.
Jeff has entertained at major corporate events on behalf of
organizations like
Inside Business Magazine and Cleveland Magazine, and has also appeared
regularly at many of the area’s finest private
clubs, including the Shoreby Club, the
Canterbury
Golf
Club, the Lakewood Country Club, the Chagrin Valley Country
Club, the Huron Yacht Club, and the Catawba Island Club.
One aspect
of Jeff's work
that audiences find engaging is his use
of digital looping
technology. By simultaneously recording and playing back his
guitar live and in real time, Jeff
performs with the complexity and depth of a small
ensemble.
Performances are enhanced through
the use of high quality but
compact
sound reinforcement and digital audio processing
equipment.
Jeff uses the most modern technology
to deliver a
high-caliber sound that never
overwhelms the listener.
