Jeff Naideau

Through the 1970s, pianist Jeff Naideau quit Connecticut’s cold climate for the heat of California, on the way trading in his classical teaching for a stint inside a rock and roll group. Your choice led to use Wang Chung, Calm Riot, Robbie Kreiger, and Eric Burden. He discovered a second house in Louisiana when, throughout a visit to the Crescent Town to take the brand new Orleans Jazz & History Event, he sat in throughout a French One fourth gig at Patout’s. The establishment’s owner therefore enjoyed the music Naideau produced for the piano that he booked Naideau for the others of his amount of time in New Orleans. Drawn from the city’s musical history and tradition, the pianist relocated once more and drew motivation from such Big Easy performers as Dr. John, Wayne Booker, and Teacher Longhair. It didn’t consider long for the others of New Orleans to warm to Naideau. THE HOME of Sea food and Chef Andrew Jaeger booked him in to the French One fourth, snagging him before he’d been there lots of times. While at THE HOME of Sea food, Naideau distributed the stage with several New Orleans music artists, including drummer Freddy Staehle. Staehle also added his abilities to Naideau’s second record, Heaven on the Fifty percent Shell, from Changed Records.
