He hit it big with Bread. The guy owns an Oscar. And he did screen time with Frank Sinatra! Growing up in Memphis, Jimmy made the young star’s trek to Hollywood in 1962 where he quickly scored a contract with Reprise Records to release the Surfer’s classic LP Summer Holidays, and toured with surf kings the Beach Boysand Jan and Dean. He also found time to study acting as an “artist-in-development” at MGMstudios where he appeared in such films as “For Those Who Think Young” (1963) and the Sinatra directed “None But The Brave” (1964). But music was his first love. As the sixties rolled on, Jimmy turned down a membership in the Beach Boys to partner with Rob Royer and David Gates to form the powerhouse 70s Pop hit machine, Bread. With Bread hits like “It Don’t Matter To Me,” “if,” “Truckin’,” “Baby I’m-A Want You” and “The Guitar Man,”Jimmy’s talents as a singer, musician, performer, writer and producer paid off not only in hit songs, but also with an Oscar for writing the 1970 Song of the Year “For All We Know”for the film Lovers and Other Strangers(and yes, The Carpenters had a hit with that same song). After the breakup of Bread, Jimmy became a staple in Nashville as a songwriter and performer. Jimmy died of lung cancer, January 2005.

The New York Daily News describes Jonell Mosser as “a bit like Janis Joplin covering Lyle Lovett, but it works, and how! (Four Stars!),” but this is only part of the story. Leaving her Kentucky home in the early 80s to settle in Nashville, Jonell is known as THE singer in a singer’s town. Starting out as a session singer with greats like Etta James, Wynnona, Hank Williams, Jr., Waylon Jennings, Patti Smyth, Vince Gill, Trisha Yearwood, Joan Baez, B.B. Kingand a ton of other stars, Jonell quickly set herself apart as a powerful Blues singer that could chameleon into any genre. Don Was was particularly taken by her vivacious stage personality and stunning voice, recruiting her to front his band, The New Maroons. Backing Jonell in The New Maroons was Don Was (producer to the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Elton John, etc.), Ringo Starr(The Beatles) and Benmont Tench (Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers). But playing gigs like Farm Aid and Woodstock is only part of her repertoire, Jonell is also featured on some great movie soundtracks, including John Travolta’s “Look Who’s Talking Now,” Woopie Goldberg’s “Boys On The Side” and Sandra Bullock’s “Hope Floats.”  Jonell continues to record her own critically acclaimed albums and tour.
