Far Off Place

About Me


Brothers Jason and Timothy Gardner join forces with their childhood friend Jim Burns to become
FAR OFF PLACE.
This band is made great by their awesome songwriting, stylistic vocals and tight creative drumming. The group has a strong connection with music from a time when it was much more melodic and musical. Stealing influences from bands like the Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, Jefferson Airplane and other greats from the sixties and seventies, crossed with today’s alternative sound. This band is a real reminder of just how awesome the music from that time really was.
In 07 the band got the attention of the famous Artie Kornfeld [producer Woodstock 69 and contributor to over one hundred gold and platinum records] he brought in engineer Shelly Yakus [John Lennon, Tom Petty, U2] and produced there new cd.
“This is a band with not one or two, but dozens of hit songs” says Artie, “They’re Alternative. and they’re retro.” This is cool new sound from a Far Off Place!

We would like to give a special thanks to Artie Kornfeld, (former VP. Capitol and Mercury Records, co-creator and promoter of "Woodstock 69" and many other jobs in the industry), for all his wonderful help. We would also like to thank, Artie’s good friend, and now ours, Shelly Yakus. He is engineer to not only some of our songs, but, records from, (John Lennon’s), "Imagine" to "Fleetwood Mac", "U2", and many, many more. We had a great time working with them on our new album which came out awesome! Artie has put together a plan to promote it to radio, and since he once was one of the top recored promoters in the country, we’re really exited to see what happens. So thanks to them for all the help! esp. Artie! We love ya!
