Band History:
Jim produced his first record "Just for Fun" (2001) to moderate local success. Like other struggling artists, jim did not have enough money to buy a digital camera. Instead, he opted for the use of is scanner, directly scanning his face for the album cover. After 2001's critically acclaimed, self-produced masterpiece, hungry fans eagerly awaited a followup. But one day, Jim showed up in the Cambridge Community Television Studio holding a stack of newly saran-wrapped CDs. Angel (2002) really showcases Jim's eclectic influences and range of styles. It is the definition of excellence.
