Jeffries got his start as a part of the California band, The Two Things In One[1] and scored a regional hit with the 1973 single "Together Forever". It would lead to his stint with Tower of Power starting with 1978's We Came to Play! and he would stay with the band through the Mid-1980s, making his stint with TOP the second longest stint as lead vocalist, behind Larry Braggs.
Jeffries would go solo with the single "Razzle Dazzle"[2] from the soundtrack to the movie Wildcats. He would also record with Jeff Lorber[3] and fellow R&B singer Karyn White before releasing his first self-titled solo album[4] for Warner Bros. Records; ironically enough, the same label his old band Tower of Power once called home. The album was produced by Janet Jackson's producers and former members of The TimeJimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. He still lives in California and has released a new album with his kids as "Michael Jeffries, Daughter, Son" called Family Affair in 2010. Also in 2011, a compilation of his recordings with The Two Things In One was released called Together Forever: The Music City Sessions. On March 26, 2019, Jeffries released his next solo album Fonky Sexy Late Nights in the Lab and released a music video for "When We Love" off the album on his YouTube channel.
