His performances and musical art re-interprets and re-energizes the music of the British Invasion, further expanding the renaissance of music it produced... while combining the best elements of being a singer-songwriter and arranger. All mixed with fun!

Jeff grew up in Morton Grove from 1955-75 (his parents were MG residents for 56 years), so his May 13th performance warrants a hometown welcome!

CSF (Chiari & Syringomyelia Foundation, Inc.) is a 501c3 non-profit organization that was founded in October 2007 with the goal of raising awareness and finding a cure for Chiari malformation (CM), syringomyelia (SM) and related disorders.

CSF Chicago Chapter Rep Valerie Hoffman and her family will also be doubling as a vendor at the May 13th Market selling homemade pillows and bracelets, with 100% of the proceeds donated to the CSF charity. Register for the Morton Grove unite@night walk at Harrer Park on Saturday evening, June 3rd from 5:00-8:30 pm.
