Jeff has called the stage his second home since he won his first silver dollar in a county fair at age 3. 

 

He grew up in a musical family that played and sang every single day in the home.  His mother, an accomplished pianist, and his father, the leader of the band, created the Imboden Family Singers, with themselves and their 5 boys, performing throughout the Midwest.  Jeff was the lead singer, as well as an accomplished guitarist and drummer, on occasion playing the trumpet, French horn, piano, banjo and mandolin, with his brothers carrying the load on all the other instruments and vocals.  He had his own Rock and Roll band, and played with local Country & Western bands, before majoring in Vocal Music at then Central Missouri State University, where he was Director of the college’s main performance group The One & Only Singers.
