Jeffrey Gaines
Jeffrey Gaines has been heralded for his soul-searching lyrics and his powerful live performances.
With only his voice and a guitar for accompaniment, Jeffrey Gaines has earned a reputation as a captivating performer, entertaining audiences everywhere he goes.
Raised in Harrisburg, PA by parents more inclined to spin soul classics by Aretha and Otis than the New Wave and Brit Rock blasting from their sons room, a teenaged Gaines began singing and playing guitar in several local garage bands. He soon decided to set out on his own and quickly landed a record deal, releasing Jeffrey Gaines, the first of his five studio releases. The album garnered four stars from The Philadelphia Inquirer, describing Gaines as an ethereal soulinsistent, impassioned, full of self-knowledge. Somewhat Slightly Dazed, and Galore followed. Interview Magazine called Gaines music soul-searching and refreshingly free of jargon, sentiment or cliché.
Jeffrey Gaines released Always Be (Artemis) to both critical and commercial praise. Featuring his emotional interpretation of In Your Eyes and his own soaringly beautiful Always Be, the album hit #5 on R&R Callout America CHR/Pop list, also reaching #45 on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart. The New York Post proclaimed Always Be as a dozen-song mixthat completely illustrates the depth he is capable of.
Gaines impressive catalogue grew with Toward The Sun, produced by Mitchell Froom (Elvis Costello, Bonnie Raitt, and Crowded House). The Boston Globe declared that Gaines soulful, wounded vocals make a case for his being one of pops finest singersan artist who deserves far more attention than some of his more hyped, yet less talented peers. Mojo noted, This established soul-folkies sexy growl has an underlying edge, making it a memorable album. Heartfelt unpretentious.
Throughout his career, Gaines has built a rapport with his fans unlike any other in popular music today. Gaines goes as far as letting his fans influence the songs he performs each night. When its just me playing, I only know the first song Im going to play, but from there the energy and the vibe tell me what the next song is going to be. Someone may yell a song, and Im like Exactly! Good call. Thats so fun to me, keeping it exciting and spontaneous. I dont even know what's around the corner, and the crowd doesnt either. Based on that relationship with the audience, Gaines released Jeffrey Gaines Live (CD / DVD) followed by Live In Europe, which was recorded during his 25-city tour with Joe Jackson. JGs 2016 return to Europe will be accompanied with long-awaited new music, with a release to follow in early 2017.
