Artist description New Jersey's newest singer, songwriter, musician and poet.

Music Style Celtic/gothic folk

Artist History Jeff Callahan's debut CD Havens, Haunts & Holllows will have you searching the liner notes for source material, since most of the songs sound like Appalachian folk tunes resurrected off old Folkway records. They're not; Callahan has merely tapped into that spare, emotionally raw sound that's the hallmark of America's most rooted of roots music.

Instruments acoustic guitar, mandolin, fiddle, upright bass, dobro, keyboards, uillean pipes, tin whistle

Albums Havens, Haunts & Hollows

Press Reviews "Callahan's songs have a spare touch, a thoughtful lyric quality, and that dark gothic edge that's found in classic American folk music." (Wayne Thorpe - The Star Gazette) "His talents really shine in such tracks as "Two Hundred Miles," as he sings of journeying back to love, and in "Central Avenue Lullaby," the sad and haunting goodbye of a father to his daughter when her mother comes to take her to a new home far away." (Charlie Gebetsberger - Rambles)
