Jeff Mamett is a singer-songwriter influenced by writers such as Guy Clark and John Prine.  He is a storyteller whose songs have an authentic, earthy quality. 

Growing up with horses and cows, made a deep imprint in his life, but music seemed to have the stronger hand.  Jeff began learning the guitar at age 7 and by 12 was performing regularly with older players.  After years as a sideman, recording and touring with various artists, he left the music industry to raise a family. 

During that time he worked feedlots in the Texas panhandle, ran a cow/calf and stocker operation, and worked as a large herd consultant.  Once the kids were grown, Jeff began writing and singing his own songs.  His 2018 album, "Carry Me Back", was critically acclaimed.
