Jeffrey Butzer – She Traded Her Leg CD
"I met Jeffrey through myspace. The band he performs with and the name of the artist collective of which I am a member share a name, "Midwives". I acquired the CD by bartering a stuffed felt mouse and homebaked cookies. On first listen, the compositions of "She Traded Her Leg" are reminiscent of french cinema, which I love. In addition to the accordian you might expect at the mere mention of "french cinema", Jeffrey plays piano,glockenspiel, guitar, drums, xylophone, bass, banjo, autoharp, ocarina,melodica, accordion, harmonica. The sound is rich and often surprising and, most importantly, authentic and felt - Expect both light and playful and dark and introspective. Jeffrey puts all of himself into this music. This becomes more and more aparent as I get to know him better... Now it's your turn ..." - Sarah Hunt
