Having absorbed much of the historical town’s arts culture, this has made his work diverse ranging from folk to jazz to hip-hop. He attended New England Conservatory of Music and Northeastern University in Boston, where he earned a degree in business. While in college, he picked up the double bass with swiftness. Within 8 months, he was asked by great alto saxophonist, Donald Harrison, to join his group. Archer's first recording appearance is on Harrison’s Impulse recording “Free to Be”.
