Jim James

Welcome to The Singers Talk Podcast based on my book of the same name. This week you’ll hear my conversation with Jim James of the critically acclaimed, Americana, psychedelic, experimental, rock and roll band ~ My Morning Jacket. And by the way, none of those labels or genres I just mentioned can define who this man is, and what he sounds like. Because he’s always changing, striving and evolving, taking his voices places that its yet to go. In this episode you’re gonna hear us talk about what he learned from Kermit the Frog and Chris Cornell. The power of reverb. Making mistakes. The beauty of making mistakes. How to connect with a song you wrote years ago. His continuing search for the spirit inside of his voice, and inside of himself, and so much more. There’s a lot of things to take home with you on this one, whether you’re a singer or not. All my writer’s royalties from sales of the book benefit the kids and families at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital through our Music Gives to St. Jude Kids campaign.
