About Me

Guitarist Jeff Barone has been a part of the New York City jazz scene for over a decade. He started in the jazz organ clubs of Harlem working with Jimmy Preacher Robins, Mel Davis, Seleno Clarke, and a stint with groove/acid jazz legend Reuben Wilson. Jeff could also be found in a wide range of performances, from leading his own group at Birdland, sideman at Carnegie Hall or the JVC Festival, to a feature with the BMI Jazz Orchestra at Merkin Hall. Jeff also went on to work with artists such as Tom Harrell, Joe Magnarelli, Bob Mintzer and Jimmy Lovelace. From the liner notes of his debut CD, Crazy Talk, Jack Wilkins states: Jeff's playing is technically masterful with a sound that comes right from the heart and improvisations that are unique and emotionally satisfying.
