BIOGRAPHY/BAND HISTORY:

Played in various Death Metal bands in Wisconsin growing up. The main band was called Experiment Fear. Also played in a few cover bands. The very first band I was in was called Fear-Tech. We won a Battle Of The Bands and got free studio time out of the deal. [*Webmaster Note: Jeff auditioned for Megadeth after Jeff Young was let go from the band.] MAIN BANDS: Nevermore, Sanctuary (for a few months prior to Nevermore) SIDE PROJECTS: None at the moment

INFLUENCES:

GUITARISTS: Jason Becker, Marty Friedman, Yngwie Malmsteen, Tony MacAlpine, Jeff Beck, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eddie Van Halen, Brian May, Frank Zappa and more... BANDS: I listen to just about anything. I try not to limit myself to what I listen to. At the moment it's bands like Meshuggah and Soilwork that I'm really into.
