The Man Behind the Music

Geezer Jim — Jim Hammonds, to the folks who caught him the first time around — has been playing country rock since songs were cut live and mistakes were left in because they were true. The voice has some gravel in it now. The songs are better for it.

The Ol’ Cafe is fourteen originals recorded the old way: honest guitar, no studio tricks, nothing between the song and you. Pull up a stool.

and for the industry folks passing through — every recipe in the kitchen is for sale.
