Jeff Lorber Celebrates Today |
| Nov 04 2010 |
Pioneering artist Jeff Lorber celebrates birthday number 58 today [November 4]. Born in Philadelphia, he played in numerous R&B bands as a teenager, before moving to Oregon and forming the seminal group, the Jeff Lorber Fusion. Drawing on influences including Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea, the group helped push the jazz-fusion sound into the mainstream – and introduced up and coming artists to the format, including Dave Koz and Kenny G. Lorber is currently on the charts with his hit, “Pixel" from his newest project, Now Is the Time.
