“Jeff Desira is one of my favorite up-and-coming songwriters in the Bay Area right now. From the first few notes of ANY of his songs its clear that he knows his craft better than most and has puts tons of thought into his lyrics, melodies and arrangements. Jeff’s songs have a way of conveying the simple experiences of life with honesty, originality and authenticity. Plus he’s the nicest guy in the world!”
- Chris Manning (Producer at Salamander Sound, Musician, Skywalker Sound)
"Jeff Desira is a songwriter I am going to be keeping my eye on - no doubt we all will. His star is on the rise here in the Bay Area."
- Andrew Griffin (Felsen, Cake, Brad Brooks)
"We all know Jeff's songs are incredibly infectious but I am finding a depth and character within his lyrics that keeps blindsiding me. These are songs I wish I'd written."
- Scott Mickelson (Musician, Producer)
"Memorable melodies that turn into hooks and a super honest delivery make [Jeff the] complete package."
- Jeff Campbell (Musician, Guitar Center Songwriter of the Year 2016)
"In a sea of indie singers, it’s easy to get lost. Especially in a city as large as San Francisco. I had the great fortune to have stumbled upon Jeff Desira whilst cruising the indie scene. Immediately, his catchy acoustic ballads stood out in a sea of other singer/songwriters."
