Music for People

About Me

I'm a bassist and guitarist, songwriter and producer. I am also something of a journeyman musician, having played with a number of different acts over the years. I have played around the U.S. and in Europe, at bars, clubs, festivals, colleges, private parties, you name it. I have released my own CD and have played on other people's recordings. I have played a number of different styles of music, although my personal inclinations always pull me to roots music and jazz, with some world beat leanings. Ultimately, I have pretty expansive musical interests - as long as it's played with style and passion, I enjoy it. I invite you to visit my website at www.jeffmuller.net for a more complete story, more music samples, more photos - basically, just more of everything. And glad to make new friends here at MySpace.peace-Jeff www.jeffmuller.net

My "Top 8"...

Okay, it may just be my personality type that requires me to do this (or that fact that I'm a little disquieted by the idea of a "top 8"), but from this day forth (this being an official decree and al...

Drummers I have played with...

Okay, this is because I love the drums - and of course, a bassist wants nothing more than to play with a happening drummer - and I'm a lists kind of guy. So here is a somewhat comprehensive list of dr...

Let's not forget New Orleans...
