Jeff Platz

Born:

Jeff Platz, New York, Boston area guitarist composer, has toured extensively for the past decade throughout the U.S. and Europe. He has performed in various music festivals worldwide such as New York City’s What is Jazz? festival, the Heidelberg jazz festival, Amsterdam Crossing Borders festival, the Munster International Jazz festival in Munster Germany and most recently the Bia Jazz Festival in Milan Italy. The Berlin based music journalist Wolf Kampmann writes, “Platz’s music is generous although never accidental. The secret of its uninhibited quality lies more in Platz’s playful use of the familiar where intuition, feeling, and memory are the most important navigational instruments”

Jeff Platz / Max Goldman / Brendan Carniaux: With Orbit

Read "With Orbit" reviewed by Mark Corroto


If we had to categorize the sounds of Jeff Platz, Max Goldman, and Brendan Carniaux, we might call it sneaky music. Not sneaky as in deceitful, more like wily or sly. Partly composed, mostly improvised, With Orbit trades in the art of sleight of hand. For instance the opening track “Lost To History" leads off with ...

Fabio Delvò: Rastplatz

Read "Rastplatz" reviewed by Dave Wayne


I became aware of Fabio Delvo's music via his recordings with guitarist Jeff Platz.

The title of Delvo's second album as a leader, Rastplatz, isn't a tribute to ...
