Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
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.
