JEFF SIPE

Jeff Sipe is the consummate drummer. His talents and his thoughtful nature have made him a highly respected and sought after musician. He was a founding member of Aquarium Rescue Unit, which featured current members of Wide Spread Panic and the Allman Brothers Band. Then he toured with Grammy nominated Susan Tedeschi, Leftover Salmon, and Keller Williams to highlight just a few of the projects and artists he performs and records with.
He is at the core a musician of free expression.
He continues his pursuit of free musical expression with the likes of virtuoso guitarist Alex Machecek and bassist Matthew Garrison (John McLaughlin, Paul Simon) collaborating on the recording іImprovisionІ on Abstract Logix.
Jeff's current project is true to this theme of improvisation with his group the Jeff Sipe Trio, in which he called on the young talents of Knoxville guitarist Mike Seal and bassist Vince Ilagan.
