About Me



Take a guy who has written songs since the age of 13. Let him pop the kids to bed, take the dog out, lock up and watch him ponder another visit to the spare room where an array of keyboards, guitars and half finished songs await.Gradually the songs get finished and straddle the pop/ballad genre with occasional moves to electronica.Guardian Angel is Jim's latest release and is available to hear here prior to being available in online music stores... type="text/javascript" function GetThis(T, C, U, L) { var targetUrl = 'http://www.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=postto&' + 't=' + encodeURIComponent(T) + '&c=' + encodeURIComponent(C) + '&u=' + encodeURIComponent(U) + '&l=' + L; window.open(targetUrl); } ..
