Jimmy
Koncert
Bass,
Vocals
Born in long beach California and
brought to Michigan at age 6 when his dad took a job with a car
company making parts for the Cadillac. The second of four boys
started singing classes in middle school and started learning musical
instruments in 9th grade. first came piano, then guitar, then bass
guitar in 11th grade upon joining the high school jazz band. Jimmy K
took his first crack as being a professional musician almost
immediately out of high school, joining a country/rock band. After
tinkering in a couple of high production low-income bands the dream
was founded with jimmy being the first of the guys to climb on board.
The rest as they say is history (or history in the making).
A
little bit about Jimmy K.
Likes- Vacations
away from home. Going up north. Watching live concerts or concert
DVD.'s on my home theatre system. Fri. and Sat. nights from 10:00
p.m. til 2:00 a.m.
Dislikes- mean
people, day jobs, MTV, running out of beer.
Influences- Bob
Seger, my dad (got me interested in piano), my older brother Larry
(the best singer I've ever heard) man did he have a vocal range.
Favorite Food- Anything
on the BBQ on a hot sunny day.
Favorite Drink- Doesn't
the whole world know that by now?
Favorite Sport- Anything
my kids are playing. Mostly hockey and football. They are both
terrific athletes and shine like stars on any team they've ever
played on. We love going to those little league games.
Favorite Thing- Helping
my wife Peggy raise our two baby boys and watching them turn into
wonderful young men (fourteen and eleven now). We're very proud of them.
A final thought and thanks- For
almost twenty years now, I've been in this band. I wouldn't trade
the memories for anything. Thanks to my entire family (it can be
tough sometimes leaving the house on a Fri. or Sat. night) and thanks
to the many fans and kind words shared throughout the years.
See you at the gig.....
