BAND SPOTLIGHT | Geoff Turner

Singer-songwriter Geoff Turner returns to his native Springfield from his current home base of Nashville, Tenn. on a mission to introduce fans, family and friends to his new EP CD. Winter Songs, Turner’s self-produced and independently released recording, “has been over a year in the making.” He credits much of the CD effort to encouragement from “the many people with immense talent” he met since moving to Nashville in 2007 and from “honing his own writing talents” by attending numerous songwriter nights around town. The relocation came after Turner graduated from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale with a degree in music business and left for Music City USA to work, learn and play in the heart and soul of America’s music industry. He started the SlamFire Agency in November of 2011 as an independent artist development and booking company, building on previous on-the-job tasks learned while working in music publishing, tour booking and independent artist promotion. Welcome home Geoff!
