After an impromptu session, it was quickly apparent there was a musical connection between the different musicians who would become Jeff Pifher & Socrates Trial. Band members acquired their individual skills and techniques from early experiences across the country before their paths eventually crossed in Los Angeles. Members of Socrates Trial have performed with: Jacob Collier, Marcus Miller, Stanley Clarke, Kamasi Washington, Charlie Puth, Chris Bullock (Snarky Puppy), Bob Mintzer, and Troy Roberts to name a few. Members have performed at the Copenhagen Jazz Festival, Monterey Jazz Festival, North Sea Jazz Festival, Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. and many more.

Jeff Pifhers original compositions were inspired by the sounds of both classical and jazz legends as well as his desire to transform rhythms into melodies that tell a musical story. The influence of rock, pop, and even classical sounds on band members, combined with jazz roots as reflected in extended improvisations result in an expressive yet cohesive playing style that makes for a memorable and entertaining audience experience.
