What to expect

The show features this multi-instrumentalist and his looping system. Whether the crowd needs soft acoustic tones for an intimate performance or craving that full band sound with a small footprint, Jimbo is your go-to maestro. Passion, charisma, and an unwavering love for people and music are all woven into every note of Jimbos performance. The authentic comedy serves as a bonus to an already magnificent show.

If you’re lucky, you’ll catch him (or book him!) with his longtime musical brother and guitarist Jason Caliguri. Jason is an accomplished and award-winning guitarist with touch, feel, tone and energy to match anything that the performance needs. His technical mastery of the instrument is evident, and his quick-witted comebacks serve as the perfect complement to Jimbo’s, sometimes off-script nature.
