The Too Bad Jims
The Too Bad Jims consist of the lauded blues veterans Little Victor, Son Jack Jr., and Nick Simonon. The gentlemen share a deep love for Hill Country Blues and bring both the classics and obscure tracks back to life. It’s no coincidence that their band name is a nod to the legendary album by R.L. Burnside, one of the pioneers of the genre. Little Victor even learned the tricks of the trade directly from the grandmaster himself!
With hypnotizing drums and raw guitar playing, they know all too well how to deliver the characteristic North Mississippi groove. With a double ‘rough and ready’ vocal sound, a tearing bottleneck slide, and a good amount of boogie, they add their own spin to it. Not bad at all, Jim!
