Around that time he happened to stumble into a downtown Irish pub (The Black Rose) where he was coaxed on stage to belt something out. Almost eight years and 1500 gigs later Jim is still with Sundays Well playing trad Irish folk rock greengrass and who knows what else. As 2007 rolled in and the hankering to step out of the sidemans role began to grow , Jim enlisted his most talented buddies and assembled some sessions at the legendary Hi and Dry Studios in Cambridge, Ma under the watchful guide of record sherpa Billy Conway(He plays the drums)The resulting recording is entitled Gin and Sugar which was released on the Whack Music label in the spring of 08 and is currently available at CD Baby or at shows.
