Top 40 Americana artist and GAC Edge of Country" artist, Jimmy Baldwin's cinematic storytelling and technicolor melodies capture the essence of the "New Texas" sound - haunting and melodic, dark and tonic.
Somebody¹s Nobody, Jimmy¹s debut CD, reaches into the heart of human desire to reveal pain¹s search for hope and despair¹s struggle for faith. Featured on KCRW¹s Brave New World, Jimmy has been featured and spotlighted on numerous radio stations.
You may know his award-winning commercials for Motel 6 and his suntanned beach spots for Corona beer. But with his independent music release, Jimmy turns his talents to singing and songwriting. Above all else, I am a storyteller, says Baldwin, a musical novelist.
Indeed, his stories capture the ebb and flow of timeless moments; whether it is a story of a starlit ghost in a midnight-blue sky,adventurous brothers escaping Mexican Federales on horseback, or a ganja girl swirling in a green and purple haze, Jimmy¹s music is the place of myths and legends.
The Jimmy sound is rooted in the Texas singer- songwriter tradition. His guitar is the needle that weaves the yarn through the fabric of lost memories and forgotten dreams. Born in Western Kentucky and raised in El Paso, Texas, his music reflects the familiar spirit of country music as it blends with the sounds he grew up on classic country, rock, border Norteña, and the spontaneous, freestyle of the mariachi street musicians in Juarez. The Jimmy sound transcends the country music stereotype, making it accessible to listeners of many other music genres.
Somebody's Nobody was mixed and mastered by
Fred Remmert of Cedar Creek Studios in Austin, known for his work with The Dixie Chicks, Shawn Colvin, Jerry Jeff Walker, and Pat Green. Produced by Clay Pendergrass, the CD was recorded by a virtual who¹s who of the Dallas music scene.
Jimmy Baldwin, a new sound on the Texas scene, has captured the essence of the New Texas sound haunting and melodic, dark and tonic.
