Jeff Phelps is a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Houston, Texas.
He 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.
Human Ear is pleased to welcome Jeff Phelps to its 2010 Fall concert series.
