Neighbors - Folk, Blues, Jazz
Neighbors began in 2015 after Morgan moved in next door to Jeff. Spotting Morgan carrying musical instruments into the house, Jeff struck up a conversation that quickly turned into a friendship. A few months later, Morgan showed up to Jeff's birthday party with an instrument in hand, and the duo was born.
More than a decade later, Jeff (guitar) and Morgan (cello) continue to blend folk, blues, jazz standards, and original songs into performances that are warm, lively, and full of personality. Often joined by guest musicians, every show features memorable solos, plenty of laughs, and a setlist that shifts with the energy of the room.
Though Jeff now lives across the water, the pair still performs throughout the area, proving that good neighbors never really move away.
