All original music... rock/folk/indie
Our new music video for "I'm Into Something Good" is now up on featuring Bella Donna We bring you all original music... with rock/folk-rock/country/blues influences. It's pretty much a one man operation around here, with me(Jim) writing and performing almost all of the guitar, keyboard, and vocal parts. Donna, the lovely lady in the photo, provides the inspiration. She's a very funny, unique and special lady. You can see Donna in action .

Lyrics
She grew up by the projects They were always short of money But the way she smiled at me It was sweeter than honey It takes a mother's love to keep her children's heads above the river of life. She never knew her father He couldn't stop his drinking. Her mother said "Bill when I married you I didn't know what I was thinking." She kept her head up high and told old Bill "Goodbye" in the river of life. Her brother was hangin' out Cause there were no jobs here, So he signed up for the army Just to get a career. One day an enemies gun took my grandma's only son from the river of life. Just a few years back There was more bad news. When momma found out my sister was shot She really blew a fuse. There's so many guns around here, mothers are living in fear for their children's lives. Well we got lucky And my sister survived But I think of all the guns And all the lost lives. God gave us his only son But the killing still goes on In the river of life The sad river of life.
