<p>Jeff Parker is an American jazz and post-rock guitarist, originally from Hampton, Virginia. He honed his skills at the renowned Berklee College of Music before relocating to Chicago in 1991. There, he became a member of the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM). Since 2013, Jeff has been residing in Los Angeles, where he continues to captivate audiences with his unique musical style.</p>

Though he invited in collaborators for this project, Parker is very much a solo artist on Suite for Max Brown. He constructs a digital bed of beats and samples; lays down tracks of his own on guitar, keyboards, bass, percussion, and occasionally voice; then invites musician friends to play and improvise over his melodies. But unlike a traditional jazz session, Parker doesn’t assemble a full band in the studio for a day or two of live takes. His accompanists are often working alone with Parker, reacting to what Parker has provided them, and then Parker uses those individual parts to layer and assemble into his final tracks. The process may be relatively solitary and cerebral, but the results feel like in-the-moment jams—warm-hearted, human, alive. Suite for Max Brown brims with personality, boasting the rhythmic flow of hip hop and the soulful swing of jazz.
