Artist History Jeff was first exposed to the American Indian Flute while attending a Powwow in Baltimore, MD in 1993. Though given some basic instruction from a Choctaw named Windtamer, he is largely self taught. His musical influlences include Tsaine Doise, John Ranier Jr., R. Carlos Nakai, and Douglas Spotted Eagle. "I am often asked what kind of music I play. To which I respond, I don't know. It's music that I like. I've been told there are two kinds of music, good and bad, I try to make the former." Jeff was honored with a Native American Music Awards nomination for best flutist of the year in 1998, and his album Cedar Moon won it's catagory in 2001.
