Jeff Campbell[1][2] (born Sept 7, Philadelphia, PA) is an American musician and singer-songwriter.

Early life

Campbell took private piano instruction as a child, started a metal band in high school, and attended school at West Chester University in Pennsylvania.

Career

A Philadelphia native, Campbell moved to San Francisco in 2005 specifically for the newer Rock scene he had heard was developing. After a few years of trying to balance learning the West Coast Music Scene with his day job, the job was cast aside in favor of full-time touring, writing and recording. - See more at: http://www.jeffcampbellmusic.com/bio/#sthash.pOSednsu.dpuf

In 2006, the musician started his second band "Pine and Battery,"[3] and indie-rock band, (2006-2012) with members Rick Munoz (drums), Andy Weller (guitar), and AJ Leighton (bass). Campbell's current band project includes San Francisco, Bay Area musicians Rick Munoz (drums), Max Delaney (guitar), Andrew Lion (bass). (2013-current.)

"On a whim, he entered the Guitar Center Singer-Songwriter 2 contest and made it to the online semi-finals. From there, he was hand-picked as one of ten finalists who performed live...at Hollywood’s Hotel Cafe." - American Songwriter.[4] Campbell was then selected as the winner of Guitar Center's National Singer Songwriter 2 Competition[5] out of over 13,000 entrants in 2013, and released "In Spite of Everything", a 5 song EP produced by 6x Grammy Winning Producer John Shanks, later that year. The EP debuted at #1 on the iTunes Rock EPs and Singles Charts. - See more at: http://www.jeffcampbellmusic.com/bio/#sthash.pOSednsu.dpuf
