the Neffs

The Neffs began in the basement of Jake and Gordy’s parents’ house in Pittsburgh after a long journey around the world with their family as Air Force kids. The two are brothers and have been playing music together for about 5 years. Jake was in various bands in high school playing bass and guitar as well as composing tons of what would later become Neffs songs. Gordy picked up saxophone in high school and went on to study formally in college while teaching himself how to play drums and guitar. The two met good friend and bassist Chris when they used to play with the (now defunct, RIP) Pittsburgh-based band “The Beauregards”, whom Chris was playing bass for, and recruited him as their full time bassist around the fall of 2012. They have been very involved in the Pittsburgh underground scene and have played with established artists such as Wild Nothing, Celestial Shore, Ava Luna, and Rah Rah. They just released their debut album “Roam” on November 11, 2014, which was recorded, mixed, and mastered by their friend Matt Poirier, whom Gordy went to school with for music technology. Their album is available on Bandcamp, iTunes, and Spotify, as well as most other music download sites. Currently hiatused. You can check out our album "Roam" on Bandcamp, iTunes, and Spotify!
