Jeff Spain initially struggled to find his true calling in life. Born to a Ghanaian businessman and young Ghanaian church singer, Jeff often times faced opposition from his parents whenever he discussed pursuing a career in music. But their attempt to dissuade him only fueled his passion. "When I would listen to great music, I could always escape from my present reality and get lost in the songs," Spain said of his relationship with music. "When I started writing my own music, I felt so empowered. Music has always been my voice. It would be Spain's closest friends in college who would undoubtedly encourage Spain to utilize his singing ability by participating in various talent showcases and nightclubs in New York City.

In 2006, Spain relocated to Atlanta, Georgia. While there he recalls meeting a pastor who would encourage him to sing for the glory of Christ. That meeting entirely changed the course of Jeff's musical destiny. And eventually, after much consideration, the laid back crooner would decide to transition himself from singing R&B Soul to Inspirational music.

Jeff's first major success would come in 2009 after performing on the second season of BET's Sunday Best. Though a bit reluctant at first, Spain avidly suggests that it was the prompting of God and the push from friends that would lead him inevitably to audition for a slot on the hit BET TV show. His smooth vocals and casual laid back style would garner him a spot as one of the top twenty finalists, and ultimately, a place in the top ten. 

Jeff Spain can currently be seen on season 1 of the new hit web series "An African City" which had its debut on March 2014, on Youtube. Genuine and sincere, this rhythmic songster has the personal appeal and natural ability to reach the masses, Currently working on his debut album, J Spain aims to inspire the hearts and minds of believers and nonbelievers alike, " I have experienced being on both sides of the fence.

I want to release a project that is truly a reflection of me and that lets people know exactly who I really am, and what the Lord has done for me
