An exciting acoustic guitarist, singer, and composer of powerful music that furthers the ideals of ecology, justice, and peace, Jim makes an impact on hearts and minds across the world.

One of the rare musicians who have transcended stylistic boundaries, Jim has recorded or shared the stage with luminaries from the jazz, classical and folk music worlds. From Carnegie Hall and the Newport Jazz Festival with the Paul Winter Consort; to a concert at the end of the Great Peace March with folk legends Pete Seeger and Peter Yarrow, Jim’s travels have taken him around the world, including a European tour with the Griffith Singers performing his choral music; recording in the gardens of Findhorn Scotland with jazz flautist Paul Horn; touring Nicaragua with Holly Near and performing in Australia for colleges and the Institute for Earth Education international conference.

In his years as guitarist for the Paul Winter Consort, Jim led thousands in the song "Common Ground" and his own eco-anthem, "A Song For The Earth." He was co-composer of the Consort's monumental choral work, "Missa Gaia/Earth Mass," and recorded “A Concert for the Earth” in the Great Hall of the United Nations. While a member of the Consort, Jim also wrote several PBS soundtracks and composed and arranged an entire concert for the group with the Indianapolis Symphony.
