Jefferson Hamer spent the last decade in Boulder, Colorado, singing original songs and playing lead guitar on the national festival circuit with the hard-working Americana outfit Great American Taxi (featuring Leftover Salmon frontman Vince Herman), progressive acoustic trio Single Malt Band, and playing tenor banjo with the traditional Irish quartet The Wayfarers. He currently lives in New York and is writing new Folk, Rock, and Bluegrass music.
I was waiting to hear dueling fiddles between you and Jordan... by the by, I think one guy was actually dancing the time warp to the tune of Vincent Black Lightning.

I'm partial to single malt scotches and bands. Aged ~30 years is about my limit... mix with ca. 1999 bluegrass hippie funk, stir in a little zappa, and serve hot in front of an acoustic nightmare plate glass window.
