Jimmy Gnecco (OURS)

from Performance Anxiety · host Marc Shea

Jimmy Gnecco joins me for this one. His voice is one of the most powerful instruments I’ve ever heard. But he didn’t start off singing. He started as a BMX racer. He got a sponsorship from TNT bikes but he also got hit by a car. Jimmy describes seeing the power of music as a kid and discovering his own voice in the studio with a Black Sabbath tribute band playing a Motley Crue song. The story of the band Ours is a fascinating one with so many detours. It starts with a bidding war after the band had played just five shows. But there are a lot of lessons learned in this story, the most important of which is sometimes missed opportunities aren’t bad, just a chance to get the work done the right way. Jimmy describes how the new self-title Ours album brings the band full circle and how pasta saved his voice. Follow the band @oursmusic on Instagram. Look for them on FaceBook. The website is ours.net for merch, tour dates, and more. Follow us @PerformanceAnx on social media.
