   About Jeff Kalmar

Jeff Kalmar is a guitarist with over 30 years' experience in rock, folk and Celtic traditional music. He has been a member of Orion, Summerland, AvalonUSA, Real Magick and The Reelies and has shared the stage with such performers as Three Pints Shy, Richie Havens, JoAnna Farrer, Natalie Haas and Rick Nestler.

After starting his musical journey on the violin at age 7, Jeff soon picked up the guitar, electric bass and mandolin. He also occasionally swings at a hammered dulcimer, hoping for the best. After years of singing backup in rock bands he discovered that small children did not always burst into tears when he sang lead on traditional Celtic songs.

Currently Jeff is recording a solo CD for release in the Summer of 2008 and is also in the process of putting a new band together. Film at 11:00.

Yeah,

Don't get excited. I'm a bit of a technophobe and I'm still trying to figure this thing out.

Notice the stunning lack of info and posts on my part.

Yeah, I got that message too. I think she's forgotten her log in information. The affairs of state weigh heavily and choke out frivolous thoughts. She thanks you for your well wishes.

Reports of my memory lapse have been greatly exaggerated. The perpetrator of this rumor will be dealt with severely. Oh and thank you, I had a lovely party with hats and chocolate cake.

Hi Jeff,
Well, when I saw the guitar I thoght you are a flamenco player, but when I was listening your music I have been surprised. "You are not a flamenco player". I am thinking to be your friend. Ha ha ha! Seriously, your music is so beautiful. Natalie Haas has a great talent chosing her friends ...and playing cello, of course. Thanks for the add! Congratulations from Spain.
