JEFF BURNHAM Jeff Burnham is a singer-songwriter whose work builds on the Americana and folk-rock tradition. After several years writing for and performing with his band Tuesday Saints, Jeff has redefined his sound with a solo project called Jeff Burnham & the Insiders. The new band features Lindsey Clark (viola/fiddle/vocals), Seth Adam (drums/vocals), and Scott Chaurette (bass). Music columnist and author Chip McCabe describes Jeff’s first record, Hard Luck Town (with Tuesday Saints), as “down home and soulful… the perfect complement to an album collection that includes acts like Son Volt and Wilco.” Jeff released a solo record called "Lost and Found" in February 2019. The new songs were produced by Eric Lichter at Dirt Floor Recording and Production Studio with Seth Adam on drums, Dennis Cartier on bass, and Eric Lichter on piano, Hammond organ, pedal steel, bass, and harmony vocals. The music has an acoustic singer-songwriter aesthetic with a rock and roll attitude inspired by artists like Tom Petty and Ryan Adams. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - If clear skies: bring lawn chairs, blankets, and coolers to hang out on the lawn.
