"With breathy, smoky charm, that beautiful spark underneath the crusty old, tattered surface, this is some of the most gorgeous, dusky, americana-tinged folk and alt country-informed folky pop to be found. Jim has an inspired knack for honing in on the perfect song- graceful structure, fluid but distinctive melody and harmonies, occasionally Beatles-esque, that relax those muscles you never knew you had. With compressed passion in his voice, a gut-twisting intensity digging into the resonance and warmth that sings out as well, his songs buoy on the collective experience of humanity, the very sentiments that are common to every beating heart.
