Kiefer w/ Shibo

Kiefer is an American pianist, producer, and composer whose music bridges modern jazz, hip-hop production, and expressive solo piano traditions.

His work has earned the rare distinction of being signed to both Stones Throw Records and Blue Note Records, two of the most influential labels in hip-hop and jazz. A Grammy Award–winning producer for his contributions to Malibu by Anderson .Paak, he has collaborated with artists including Dr. Dre, Kaytranada, De La Soul, Pete Rock, Terrace Martin, Kenny Beats, Walter Smith III, and Nate Smith. Drawing from influences ranging from Herbie Hancock to Los Angeles beat-makers like Madlib, Kiefer’s music balances technical sophistication with emotional immediacy, pairing lush harmony with minimalist, hypnotic grooves. New music is on the way later this year from him.

Shibo is the solo project of bassist and producer Erik Shiboski. A Bay Area native and a staple of the Northeast LA music community, Shibo is a longtime friend and collaborator of Kiefer’s, serving as a co-producer and primary artist on Kiefer’s upcoming album. His bass playing and production are also featured in the work of BROCKHAMPTON, Tkay Maidza, Jay Prince, Planet Giza, Nick Dorian, and others. His debut album, featuring his unique brand of musicianship and synth psychedelia, is set to drop later this year.
