Austin Artists.com had the chance to meet jazz trumpeter and composer Jeff Lofton just outside the Long Center. Jeff is a phenomenal Austin asset, bringing a wealth of jazz experience and knowledge, along with a swinging horn to this city. Whether you listen to jazz or not, it is well worth the time to listen to Jeff as he takes you on a journey through musical history and styles.

Jeff just released his latest CD, “Jazz to the People” on Nov 7 at Mexic-Arte. You can find out more at www.jefflofton.com
