Jeff Mamett

Lead Image

Jeff Mamett is a singer-songwriter influenced by writers such as Guy Clark and John Prine. He is a storyteller whose songs have an authentic, earthy quality. Growing up with horses and cows, made a deep imprint in his life, but music seemed to have the stronger hand. Jeff began learning the guitar at age 7 and by 12 was performing regularly with older players. After years as a sideman, recording and touring with various artists, he left the music industry to raise a family.

During that time he worked feedlots in the Texas panhandle, ran a cow/calf and stocker operation, and worked as a large herd consultant. Once the kids were grown, Jeff began writing and singing his own songs. His 2018 album, "Carry Me Back", was critically acclaimed.

“Guy Clark-style songwriting...he paints vivid worlds...Western flair and John Prine-level wordplay”— Wide Open Country’s Artists to Watch: Bobby Moore, September 2018

“instantly classic...“Carry Me Back” Is A Cattle Drive Down The Plains With A Cowboy Poet ” — Mark Joseph Engleson - Americana Highways September 2018

“Jeff Mamett is the real deal. This is a true Country and Western artist. ” — Viola Krouse- Making a Scene Magazine September 2018
