An accomplished composer, and an avid backpacker, Jeff finds an endless source for his creativity in the wonders of nature. From this he brings to his audiences an evocative and elevated music: in solo performances or when performing with contemporaries Steven Stills, Greg Allman, Al DiMeola, The Glenn Miller Band, Nat Adderly or drummer Gumbi Ortiz.

Don't
ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come
alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is
people who have come alive. —Harold Whitman

In an interview Jeff said, "My goal is to transport listeners on a healing musical journey that will help them experience their aliveness and spark their emotions with a beautiful roller coaster ride. People are becoming desensitized because they're sensually battered by all the violence and negativity in the world. I want to help them feel again . . . to find a deeper sense of meaning." Music is Lantz's heart and soul!
Jeff's BEYOND FOREVER CD is among the best and cannot be put in a neat cubby little description box. It is a beautifully woven canvas—powerful melodies, expansive basslines, intriguing rhythms, and balanced and colorful arrangements that overflow with riches. A musical experience not to be missed!
