Jim's Biography
At a very young age, Jim was formulating his vast musical repertoire. Growing up in an Italian-American household, Jim was influenced by the music of Louis Prima, Frank Sinatra, big bands and the 60’s music of his older sisters: The Beatles, James Taylor, The Who and Motown. Jim fronted many rock bands throughout high school and college (Berkley, Dean Jr., U Mass Amherst) where he developed his solo repertoire at various coffeehouses that led to his performing at piano bars on Cape Cod during the summer tourist season.
Fast-forward several years to San Diego where Jim refined his talent by performing at Nordstrom, Spiritual Centers, and piano bars. A versatile accompanist and singer, Jim has performed with many local singers and musicians.
Jim showcases his versatility spanning decades with a mix of pop favorites, contemporary artists and Italian classics. Recently, Jim has added Accordion specializing in Italian songs to his repertoire. Currently, Jim performs at private events (parties, weddings, celebrations of life), restaurants, hotels, wineries, spiritual centers and senior facilities. Jim is also a member of Summer Breeze, a 60's and 70's band.
