Jeff Saxon describes his eclectic and broadly-appealing musical style, "blujanova"; a merging of blues, jazz and bossa nova. This hybrid style really shines with Jeff's innovative arrangements of tunes seemingly devoid of jazz or Latin influences, such as "Hound Dog","Riders On The Storm" and "I Got You (I Feel Good)". These highly innovative, musically-rich re-workings of timeless rock and blues classics along with 7 first-rate Saxon originals are included on Jeff's new CD, Blujanova (Relevant Records # RR70713). This sublime style also lends itself perfectly to Saxon's soothing and emotive vocals. IAE Magazine (I Am Entertainment), in reviewing Jeff's previous "Truthteller" CD, wrote that Saxon possessed “a great voice” and a reviewer at Minor 7th took it even further by calling it "a voice that is utterly disarming...”. An accomplished guitarist as well, Jeff has an expansive "jazz-centric "chordal palette, eschewing flashiness in favor of beautifully textural and soulful playing. As a songwriter and composer, Jeff is known for his memorable melodies, sublime and sophisticated chord changes and intelligently crafted lyrics. His compositions have earned him over 40 awards from various national and international songwriting contests and he is a former staff songwriter for long-standing New York City-based publisher, Bourne Music. Jeff is a NJ native, but lived and performed in Los Angeles for many years, where he worked in the studio or shared stages with well-known jazz and pop artists such as Dave Koz, Little Richard, John Daversa, Norman Brown, and jazz/fusion group, Hiroshima. Jeff has performed at numerous music festivals on both coasts and his musical talents have drawn praise from a diverse list of public figures, including Quincy Jones and former President Clinton. Jeff has appeared at several film and music festivals, including the 2012 World Music And Independent Film Festival in Washington, D.C.(where he won the award for Best Rock Music Video), The Telluride Blues and Brews Festival and the Philadelphia Music and Film Festival. Jeff's previous CD’s are : “Me, Myself, and I” ,“The Spin” , and “Truthteller” (all on Relevant Records) and are available to preview and purchase on cdbaby.com and iTunes.
