Biografie

Jim James is an American rock singer-songwriter and guitarist known best as the frontman and principal songwriter of the indie rock group My Morning Jacket. He continues to perform with the band but in 2013 he launched a solo career with an album titled 'Regions of Light and Sound of God', for which he wrote all the songs and played all the instruments.

The Kentucky-born artist had released an EP of George Harrison songs in 2009 titled 'Tribute To' under the name Yim Yames. His move to solo recordings was inspired by contemplation following an accident in which he fell off the stage during a My Morning Jacket concert and became a student of transcendental meditation.

He appeared as Yim Yames on the 2012 Woody Guthrie tribute album 'New Multitudes' along with Jay Farrar, Will Johnson and Anders Parker. In 2014, he joined artists such as Elvis Costello, Rhiannon Giddens, Taylor Goldsmith and Marcus Mumford on an album produced by T-Bone Burnett titled 'Lost On the River: The New Basement Tapes', which featured songs by Bob Dylan that had never before been recorded. His second solo studio album 'Eternally Even' came out in 2016. James also played a band leader in Todd Haynes's surrealistic Bob Dylan drama 'I'm Not There' (2007) and he has appeared on the American television series 'The Vampire Diaries' and 'Roadies'. A Jim James album titled 'Tribute to 2' featuring songs made famous by artists such as The Beach Boys, Sonny and Cher, Dianne Izzo, Ray Noble and Al Bowlly, Elvis Presley, Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan, Emerson Lake and Palmer, and Abbey Lincoln was released in 2017.
