Born in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Jeff Orson received his first guitar as a Christmas gift at the age of six. An older cousin gave Jeff some basic lessons and left him to it. He continued to play sporadically over the years.
In the early spring of 2014, Jeff was diagnosed with colon cancer. After getting over the initial shock, Jeff turned to writing music for solace. A hospital custodian heard him playing from bed during his recovery and urged him to take his music to the world. One tune seemed to lead to another and before long he had a catalogue of over 100 songs.
