Talk about a well rounded musician…

After Dokken, Pilson formed Flesh & Blood in 1989, taking over lead vocal and rhythm guitar duties. After changing the name to War & Peace, Pilson released a total of four albums, starting with 1993’s Time Capsule. Pilson later reunited with his ex-Dokken bandmate, guitarist George Lynch, in a two-member group called Lynch/Pilson, releasing the album Wicked Underground in 2003. He has also worked as a session bassist with several musicians and bands.

In 2010, Pilson participated in a tribute album titled Mister Bolin’s Late Night Revival, a compilation of 17 previously unreleased tracks written by guitarist Tommy Bolin prior to his death in 1976. A percentage of the proceeds from this project will benefit the Jackson Recovery Centers.

Adding another feather to his cap, Jeff also produces bands; including the 2nd album by KILL DEVIL HILL.
