About Me

Tres hombres that perform modern high-jam funky blues with a spicy kick. Take a pinch of Hendrix added to a dash of SRV, mix in a heaping spoonful of funky ground-shaking percussion and top it off with a little Led Zeppelin tri-power and off-beat rhythms and you got the recipe for JIMI RAY GUMBO. We've also been known to use all seven notes.

A BIG THANK YOU to Eclectic 89.1 WBCX at Brenau University in Gainsville, GA. for playing Jimi Ray on the Radio. Call your local Radio station and ask to hear Jimi Ray. Let us know and we'll send them our latest CD.
