Jeffrey Halford delivers a uniquely American melting pot of roots, blues, rock and kick-ass pop. Take some Southern soul, add a heap of Texas storytelling, a dash of Bay area's free-wheelin' spirit /liberal spirit/literary leanings/seedier side, then throw in some desert sunshine and dirt, stir with an architect's eye for detail and durability and you got yourself an idea of why Paste magazine once named him to their Ten Most Influential Artists of The Decade. Halford, with the Healers, makes some of the best records today — a beautiful and dark journey through America — like a great vinyl record.
“ Halford delivers lean, fiery rock and roll with the soul of Americana’s best. Gritty slide guitar, raw storytelling, and unfiltered energy—this is roots rock at its finest. Halford is proving a consistent, strong songwriter capable of creating one fine record after another.”
“If you can imagine Tom Petty singing vocals for the Eagles while BB King plays dirty blues, then you have a taste of the awesomeness that is Jeffrey Halford. ”
“Halford’s electrified folk-blues storytelling captivates with gritty guitar and poetic depth. A voice too powerful to stay local for long.”
— AllMusic
“Halford is a writer with a rich, emotive voice that is an uncanny blend of Petty, Dylan, Knopfler, Robertson, Cooder and the like. The tunes are vivid takes on love, relationships and the human condition, and the poetic guitarist and his crew deliver the goods with a well-crafted fusion of blues, country, folk and rock. A distinctive Americana sound that is equally fresh and familiar. ”
