Human Ear is hosting Jeff Phelps at The San Francisco Art Institute in October.
Nite Jewel, Jason Grier and The Samps will open the show.
Jeff Phelps is loved by musicians and music lovers for his idiosyncratic sense of orchestration, plaintive lyricism and line.
His career began with 1985's self-recorded "Magnetic Eyes" LP. A sought after album, its range of expression and sensitivity, inventive harmonic and songwriting structure are unique and rarely heard in modern soul, let alone music recorded with only 4 tracks to spare.
Since then he has been a creative force in a number of projects, including gospel trio Phelps Blount Burris, Two Souls, Next Level Band and Porterfield Rose, all exceptional for their emphasis on sincerity, expression and beauty.
