BIO
Award-winning singer-songwriter Jeff Standfield performs original, rhythm‑rich folk and blues‑rooted acoustic music that creates a West Coast summer vibe. He is a skilled guitarist, vocalist, and harmonica player, and his accomplished band adds electric guitar, bass, drums, and percussion to the mix. Together, they deliver an infectious high energy sound, balanced with soulful ballads.
Jeff's shows are positive, warm, and authentic — suited to community festivals and audiences of all ages, and he entertains with music and engaging banter that resonates fun, connection and living and aging well. With over 30 years of performing experience from busking to theatre concerts and festivals, he has performed with Jim Byrnes, Odds, and Barney Bentall, and opened for Spirit of the West, Adam Cohen, Dustin Bentall, and Colin James.
What sets Jeff apart is that despite a lifelong spinal cord injury and now in his sixties, he is in his musical prime delivering a memorable, high-calibre show that also draws attention and showcases diversity he hopes inspires and promotes community inclusion.
