Jeff Hooton @ The Barebones Acoustic Folk Club

Jeff grew up on the North Shore where he learned to play the accordion as a child. The teenage Jeff realized the guitar to be a more desirable instrument at that time, but he picked up the accordion again in his 30’s to play a variety of American musical styles while living and working in Denver, Colorado for over 30 years. During that time, he also played the upright bass for the Aurora Symphony in Denver and other various other ensembles. Since returning to Auckland, he has formed the band Donnybrook Fair with Todd Wright, still playing the same accordion that his mother bought for him when he was 10 years old.
Jeff believes music is best played with friends, for friends. He will be bringing a selection of much-loved covers and original songs of Auckland to share with new friends at Barebones.
