2014 CD release: Winds of Ksar Ghilane Composed in the summer of 2014 during a month and a half trek through the beautiful mountainous regions of the Turkish coast, the secluded Gypsy villages of Transylvania and the solemn desert of Tunisia.

About:

TRAVELER: An innovative fusion of world music combined with the power of a full-blown rock band. Scott Jeffers is Traveler's composer, lead performer, and band leader; his vision is to blend elements of ancient ethnic music with rock. The captivating sound of the violin, oud, Middle Eastern percussion, along with ethnic instruments collected during Scott Jeffers’ journeys, dominate the concerts. The compositions range from fiery through playful songs to heart-wrenching ballads inspired by travels across the harsh deserts of Jordan, Egypt, and the contrasting landscape of the Emerald Isle, on the sand dunes of Morocco, at the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, in bird song-filled forests of Transylvania, in the rainforests of Malaysia, and touring the ancient amphitheaters in Turkey. The real magic of a Traveler concert is in the connection the band makes with the audience. TRAVELER, the rock band, has been a favorite headlining act at festivals in Canada, the US, and Turkey. ACOUSTIC TRAVELER is a returning favorite of the spectacular Las Noches de las Luminarias festival in the US.

SCOTT JEFFERS SOLO concert: Original compositions in the frame of a one-man world music showcase performance using exotic instruments, a stompbox invention with Moroccan Karkaba castanets on a hinge system to provide a heavy downbeat groove. Solo concerts feature compositions that are not heard anywhere else and mesmerizing violin improvisations.
