Jeffrey Chin

Born and raised in San Francisco and an active member of AFM Local 6, I'm a recording and performing artist, studio musician, composer, producer and arranger who works in most genres of secular music. I am currently in various phases of producing, arranging, recording and completing three personal CD projects which will be released in the near future: one with my acoustic jazz trio; the second with my contemporary jazz ensemble; and the third being a compilation of original soundtrack themes which I've composed for film, television, documentaries, video games and various other forms of interactive media.



My trio performs every Tuesday-Saturday @Hillstone, 1800 Montgomery Street on the San Francisco Embarcadero. 6-9pm (Tues/Wed/Thurs) and 6:30-9:30pm (Fri/Sat).hope to see you there!



You can visit my website at www.JeffreyChin.com for more detailed information or drop by my other MySpace pages listed below under My Top Friends to find out more about another important aspect of my work in a different area of the music industry, which is the composition and scoring original soundtracks for all forms of visual and interactive media, and also to listen to a variety of my productions and collaborations with various colleagues spanning the past, present and future.



Please understand that my sole reason for maintaining this site is to meet, network and potentially collaborate with people outside of my normal circle of (local) musical peers and friends, particularly with those of you who share common musical interests and influences. Equally important is the vital function this platform serves amongst ourselves as a means for the sharing, exchange and execution of all the ideas, emotions and processes that comprise the musical performances and compositions posted here - after all, isn't this type of interaction and forum essential for the sustenance and growth of our music, one of the most creative and expressive art forms?



Also, take a moment to view my blog, and let me know if you feel that a collaboration might afford us an opportunity that would be mutually productive and conducive to our musical and artistic growth. If you spend a few minutes listening to the execution, diversity of musical concepts, use of textures and sound palettes of the various genres of audio clips which are posted on my website, here and on my other MySpace pages, you may determine that I can assist you in developing, enhancing and realizing the full potential of your ideas and/or project and in bringing it to fruition. References gladly provided upon request.



And if you're from or visiting the San Francisco Bay Area, feel free to drop by one of my live performances, and please say "Hello" and introduce yourself. Your support of live music is greatly appreciated and vital to the sustenance of this art form.



Thanks for spending a moment to stop by and have a listen, and for being a "new" friend - much continued success and all the best to you in all your musical, creative, artistic and other life pursuits, and be sure to keep in touch!
