Some of jazz music’s top artists, promoters, and fans have joined to help guitarist Jeff Golub, who recently lost his vision and is undergoing tests in hopes of finding a means to restore it. These tests are expensive and not covered by insurance.

The Help 4 Jeff Golub Online Auction was created with the contributions of many of Golub’s colleagues, friends, and fans. All proceeds will go toward his medical expenses. Among the contributors and prizes are Yamaha, Peter White and Euge Groove, a two-person Stateroom on the Smooth Jazz Cruise 2012, a six-person dinner at Spaghettini Grill & Lounge, a three-night VIP package for two guests to Earl Klugh’s Weekend of Jazz in Colorado Springs, a two-night stay at Summer Wood Winery & Inn, a four-pack of Gold passes (plus hotel) to JazzFest West 2012, a New York City concert with Jeff Golub, Alex Bugnon, and Cindy Bradley.
