The Jeff Kanzler Band

Comparisons are as inevitable in music as in life and in this sense singer/songwriter Jeff Kanzler is no exception (“reminiscent of a young Bob Dylan” Don Yates – KEXP, “John Vanderslice” Maurice Dielemans – Kindamuzik (Dutch Music zine), “Doug Macleod or Steve Goodman” Dani Heyvaert – MazzMusikas ( Belgium ).

Jeff released “Black Top Road” (currently available on Itunes) to critical acclaim and extensive airplay in the US, Europe, Japan and surprisingly Brazil. Called “an essential album in a year of a few essential albums” Dan Wilkinson – AmericanaUK, “brilliant” John Richards – KEXP, making KEXP’s top 10 list of 2007 Americana releases and reaching #4 on the Euroamericana chart and selling thousands of copies (no small feat for an independent release). Jeff implausibly set down his guitar in 2009 and has rarely picked it up since.

That all changes Friday, April 24th at the Red Bike when Jeff returns to the Red Bike stage with a full band.
With a new EP nearing completion and a band comprised of veteran Vashon musicians, it promises to be a fun night with a lot of great music.

This is yet another free cover show and all-ages ’til 11pm, 21+ after that.
