LOS ANGELES, CA. (Top40 Charts/ Luck Media & Marketing) - Last year when Jeff Coffey auditioned for pop mega producer David Foster, the sole judge of the NBC sponsored internet competition series 'Star Tomorrow,' he brought a lifetime of fascinating musical experiences to the stage along with his acoustic guitar.

Upon hearing the second verse and chorus of 'Through Your Eyes,' Foster excitedly left his judge's chair, sat down at the piano and started experimenting with different keys as Coffey sang along. Later, the show's producer told the singer that Foster said he loved the song, and ultimately, Foster picked Coffey as his No 2 favorite of all the auditions for the show. Visits to Coffey's myspace page (www.myspace.com/jeffcoffey), and his website (www.jeffcoffey.com) boomed, and the singer quickly got to work on his new, self-produced collection, a set of dynamic and inspiring, tracks called Long Way Home.

The title track, an autobiographical pop-rocker about life on the road, was the most added song for two weeks in a row on the FMQB AC40 chart, and is heading quickly for the Top 15; just ahead of Coffey's No 16 slot the week of August 1 are current hits by Fergie, Plain White T's and Gwen Stefani.

''Long Way Home' is a really good introduction to who I am as a person and artist,' says Coffey.

'It's travel music,' he continues, 'inspired by my experiences on the road, which was pretty much my life nonstop for over ten years. It's about the tunnel vision that can happen to a performer who has a lot of time to think about life looking out the window, but none of the responsibilities you normally have at home.

'I've traveled all over the world and could have comfortably settled into being a working musician for my whole career,' he says. 'I think the whole concept of the album title Long Way Home fits in perfectly with where I am coming from creatively. Because it's the first project I've produced myself, it's more a part of me than anything else. When I hear the music, it feels like home.'
