Jimmy is the leader and singer in the Jam Bracan Big Band. These 17-piece band consists of 5 Saxes, 4 Trombones, 4 Trumpets, and Rhythm section (piano, bass, guitar, and drums). Featuring some of the finest musicians in London, the band is equally at home on the stage at a Jazz Club or Festival, as it is performing for Weddings or Corporate Events. Jimmy is an extremely versatile Singer, as convincing when caressing a ballad as he is belting out a pop hit or Sinatra-style swinger.
