Fantastic -- Your party needs James!!!

Jimmy played for our family reunion and he was - Hands Down - the best part of the event.
Every single guest loved the music he chose, the quality of his performance, and how he created a magical musical background that still allowed for conversation. Jimmy was so easy to work with. He was wonderfully professional at every step of the process. If I lived in the area, I would hire him for All of my parties and events. Every great party needs live music.

Hired as: Guitarist

What to expect

From performance, you can expect that I will be punctual and appropriately dressed, to have all my own necessary gear for the performance, and to hear music requested and what would be suitable for the event and location.

About

I have been playing guitar for over 25 years, mostly in rock, jazz and classical styles. I am a classical guitarist by training, with a lot of experience in jazz and rock. My playing experience has been with large jazz bands to small combos. The rock bands I have played in varied from heavy metal to jazz to electro-prog rock. I do solo acts of classical, jazz, or folk/country styles, or I sit in with other players in various styles.
