Bio
goodbye jimmy is high-energy rock. While touching on themes such as relationships, loneliness, spirituality, fear, and anger, goodbye jimmy's lyrics and delivery are filled with so much energy and irreverence that elevate the material above the typical serious, brooding, self-despising mantra of the post-grunge rock band. The creatively original vocal delivery of lead singer, Eric Jameson adds to the originality of the sound. Guitar riffs abound throughout, while drum and bass beats are solid and moving. goodbye jimmy is just a whole new experience in what "rock" should be; Christian, Secular, pop, rock or otherwise.
