About Me

Jim Weeks and Little Big Wheel bring music to life. Love, joy, heartache, and struggle... this is life in all of it’s ragged glory. Like the pain inspired Blues and the frustrated assault of Punk, Little Big Wheel offers no apologies to anyone. This is the space between rock, bluegrass, punk and pop… a no-man’s land where its great to be livin’ but its hell to be alive.Little Big Wheel’s first full length CD was entitled "Home.” With the help of Dan McLaughlin (The Push Stars) at Fort Apache Studios in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the true spirit of the music was captured. The band began quickly receiving National and International recognition for their debut release. The root’s rock sound of the disc caught on in several circles of Independent music.When Little Big Wheel returned to the studio to work on their second release, “Redwood,” they collaborated with David Minehan at Woolly Mammoth Studios in Boston, Massachusetts. David, a true pro with many years under his belt touring the world with The Neighborhoods, Paul Westerberg and Aerosmith, offered a refreshing new direction and sound. It was clear that the new recordings were turning into something very special.In 2005 the full length CD entitled "Redwood" was complete. Holding true to their roots, Little Big Wheel captured another versatile release. "Redwood" displays the very talented songwriting and raw emotional power of Jim Weeks, and gives notice that Little Big Wheel is here to stay.
