From the hills of southeastern Virginia, Jeff robbins grew up with the authentic mountain sounds that he has taken to colleges, the Library of Congress, the World's Fair, television, and countless schools and libraries throughout the United States. Before audiences of all ages and backgrounds, Jeff permits no passive listening, quickly involving them in sing-a-longs, rhythmic clapping and simple square dances. Equally adept at the fiddle, banjo, mandolin and guitar, Jeff Robbins perpetuates America's richest musical tradition, Southern Appalachian Music.
Jeff holds a Bachelor Degree with a Major in Music and a Minor in Sociology from Warren Wilson College in Black Mountain, N.C. His first major project was working on the production team that brought the number 1 rated show at the time, "Fire on the Mountain," to the Nashville Network.
Recent projects include a celebration of Johnny cash with a new CD release by "The Buddy Davis Band" featuring Jeff on bass guitar. In addition to this project, Jeff has 11 previous recordings, one of which features Doc and Merle Watson.
Jeff also recently recorded with "The Buddy Davis Band," a state of the art multi camera, digital audio DVD performed live. The DVD is being submitted to PBS and RFD TV per their request.
Whether you have Jeff play for your school, library, festival or fair, the performance is always engaging, participatory, educational, and most of all, a lot of fun! Please view his entire website for detailed programming information.
