Jeff begged his parents for an electric guitar at age 7. After spending 10 years in basements and garages honing songs by the Stones and Cream, he developed an interest in jazz. As a Computer Science major at the University of Michigan, he spent a year in the University Jazz Band under trumpeter Louis Smith, as well as other university groups, local musical productions, and a cover band with a Chicago-style lineup. Jeff rekindled his love of jazz in the 2000s when he started attending Maryland Summer Jazz and the Jazz Band Masterclass workshops, where he met many of his partners. Besides his own projects, Jeff is also a regular member of the Bob Schwartz Quartet.

The son of a classical pianist and teacher, Guy grew up studying classical cello and voice. When he turned 18 he bought a (bass) guitar to punish his Mom and started playing in rock bands. Contrary to his plans, his mother found this charming and hired his band to play at her parties. Guy spent his 20s and 30s playing in rock, blues, funk and folk bands, largely in the greater Washington, D.C., area. In his thirties he began seriously studying jazz and eventually took up the acoustic double bass. He now plays in a variety of small jazz groups around the area.
