The Jeff Little Trio

an exception and a remarkable one. Jeff has not only been recognized as a critically acclaimed musician but also as a true music innovator. Jeff, as well as his trio, stay busy traveling the country performing concerts with an energy and dedication to their music that is evident at every show.
