Welcome
What's up? My name's Jeff, and I'm a singer(sort of)/songwriter from the Massachusetts woods. My influences range from the Beatles/ELO to Soundgarden/Alice In Chains to Metallica/Anthrax/Megadeth. And even some ambient folk and new age sounds.
Music has always been my life - I've only related to musicians and music freaks, and if I'm not playing music I'm listening to it. Music saved my life at one point - and continues to do so on a daily basis, pretty much. So Mountain Mirrors is my way to say thanks and give back to the spirit of music.
Please comment on Youtube, add me to your favorites on Soundcloud, "like" MM on Facebook etc. You're the only way others will hear this music - because I really suck at hyping and promoting myself.
My albums are available on iTunes, Amazon MP3 and Bandcamp. Thanks for listening. Cheers!
- Jeff

FAQ
- Frequently Asked QuestionsWhen is Mountain Mirrors gonna play (insert your country/city)?I would love to be able to fly out and play my music for you. As soon as I am blessed with the opportunity to do so, I will. But for now Mountain Mirrors is a "studio project". My recordings are like a snapshot or painting. Fortunately, the internet allows me to share these with you.I see your music is free on a number of sites, including Jamendo.com. Do you support this?In order to get my music out there, I allow it to be downloaded and shared freely. If you enjoy it, please share it on blogs and forums, write a review, enjoy it. Jamendo lets you also donate money to me if you want, so that's cool too.All I ask is if you enjoy my music, please buy at least one song from iTunes or Amazon.com. That gets me recommended over there and goes a long way toward getting my music heard by more people like you.Is Mountain Mirrors a "one man band"?I write the lyrics and music for Mountain Mirrors. Although I've had some very talented studio musicians pass through over the years and add their unique flavors to quite a few tracks.I sing everything and play all guitars and some mellotron. Friends and studio players have played drums, bass, keyboards, cellos and violins on my music, including Per Ulfheilm, Magnus "Trummange" Brandell, Peter Yttergren, Claire "Ambiencellist" Fitch, Vine Sweetland, Nick Bensen, Simon "Watto" Watson, Elad Fish, Guy Bartor and Kurt Baumer.Can I use your music in my Youtube video?Please do!
