The duo of LeFever is Jeff Starns and Dawn Lepere. Their music has a way of raising the collective temperature of the room. Our in-studio segment featured five songs from the band ; four live and one was the title cut from their recent CD “My Kind of Life”. The segment starts with a live version of “In My Mind” followed by a new song, “Turpentine”. We discuss their take on the blues music scene including Blues Challenges; LeFever was a national semifinalist in Memphis in 2024. We preview their upcoming Parlor Room show on Saturday 2/7 and the full band joining them including Drummer Tommy Diehl, Bassist Diego Marque and guitarist Trevor Collins.

We talk about their search for authenticity in the blues genre as well as some of their favorite blues artists and singers. They talk about their creative process and their preferred elements such as composing, recording or performing. We finish the segment with live in-studio versions of “Down To Me” and “Sweet Tooth”. It was an astounding performance with strong vocals by Dawn and excellent guitar work by Jeff Starns. Folks interested in this local show should go to ParlorRoom.org for ticket information.
