Jeff Kirby

The more I know...the less I understand

The above seems to have become my mantra while studying jazz. For every concept I study and incorporate into my playing, I become aware of two more that start the process all over again. However, I wouldn't trade it for the world. Jazz brought me to theory and theory has elevated my technique and style to a level I didn't think possible when I started playing.
