Over the course of 42 years and 24 albums, Jeff Lorber pioneered the post-fusion sound of contemporary jazz with his radio friendly, groove-oriented instrumental music. Lorber has woven together elements of Funk, R&B, Rock and Electric Jazz into an appealing hybrid that has consistently won over listeners from coast to coast and resulted in numerous #1 radio hits.
After six previous nominations, Lorber won his first GRAMMY® Award in 2018 for "Best Contemporary Instrumental Album" for 'Prototype' by his band Jeff Lorber Fusion. From 1977's self-titled 'Jeff Lorber Fusion' to 2021's acclaimed 'Space-Time', Lorber has shown a knack for creating fresh vibes and funky grooves while layering on jazzy improvisations on piano, synthesizer, and his signature Fender Rhodes electric piano.
