High caliber, high energy, high tech acoustic 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 downtown, he has held longstanding engagements at many of the area’s most popular and successful establishments, including The Claddagh Irish Pub at Legacy Village in Lyndhurst, M Bistro in Westlake, Don's Pomeroy House in Strongsville, the John Christ Winery in Avon Lake, and the Jackalope Lakeside at the Spitzer Marina in Lorain. 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 entertained at a variety of major corporate and non-profit events on behalf of organizations like Inside Business Magazine and Cleveland Magazine.   Jeff has also appeared regularly at some of the area’s finest private clubs, including the Shoreby Club in Bratenahl, the Canterbury Golf Club in Shaker Heights, the Lakewood Country Club in North Olmsted, and The Chagrin Valley Country Club in Chagrin Falls.

One aspect of Jeff's work that audiences find especially 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 on the technical side 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.
