Hello everyone! Thank you for visiting Lifer Studios. As you can see, my name's Jeff and I've been a musician since about 1985, I was born in Marshfield, Wisconsin to my mom Bonnie and my dad Jerry. After a couple years my parents split up and we ended up living in Lakewood, Ohio for 14 years.

In Lakewood, I attended McKinely Elementary, Lincoln Elementary, and Horace Mann Middle School. About half-way through eight grade, my mom moved my brother and I back up to Minocqua, Wisconsin where I finished out my middle school years at MHLT Elementary.

High School was great. I went to Lakeland Union High School in Minocqua, Wisconsin where I really was able to build on my love for music. I had a strong love for playing drums for most of my life, but over the years I found a love for and taught myself how to play guitar, keyboards, and bass.

I later found that the instrument I played, has a direct relation to the genre of music I play. For instance, in "Breaking Free" my guitar influences are very rock sounding, whereas all of my other tracks in which I primarily use keyboards, are mainly New Age in nature.

All of the tracks on the Spirit Journey album were composed on keyboard, with the exception of "Breaking Free" in which I recorded live rhythm guitar and is my first attempt at playing lead as well.

Perhaps the most interesting aspect of Lifer Studios, is that I can't readily ready music. Each and every one of my tracks is completely original and "off the top of my head" None of these tracks have been rehearsed or even written into sheet music. All of my music is composed completely by ear, which also makes each track completely authentic and unfortunatley makes for a great deal of difficulty where touring is concerned :)

Well, I hope you enjoyed this little... dive into the life of Lifer Studios. I hope you like what you hear :)

These tunes can now also be purchased at eMusic!!
