Blues, country, gospel and soul all go into the equation equally."
Guitarist, songwriter, vocalist and producer Jimbo Mathus grew up in Clarksdate, Mississippi. He first caught the public's ear in the 1990's with the hyper-ragtime vaudeville act, The Squirrel Nut Zippers. Since then, he's released many recordings of his own in a style he describes as "Mississippi Music." His background includes guitar slinging on Grammy-winning Buddy Guy's "Blue Singer" and an engineering/ producing credit for Elvis Costello's Grammy nominated "Monkey to Man" single. "Old Scool Hot Wings" is the newest offering by Mathus. The album is a light-hearted country blues jugband record sure to please both young and old scool.
"I keep the old stories alive while they help keep me alive." - Jas. Mathus
