Jimis first Rock band was in 1978, singing mainly Rush & Deep Purple songs & so his passion for ‘Classic Rock’ had begun.\u00a0 The next few years brought many hours of practise & to Paul Rodgers, David Coverdale & Ronnie James Dio for inspiration.<\/p>\n

He began writing songs and formed the rock band Sahara whilst spending any spare time attending a gazzillion gigs at the Legendary ‘Glasgow Apollo’ till it closed in 1985. Various incarnations of the band ensued including a name change to “The Hardline” until they were picked up by Wet Wet Wet’s manager Elliott Davis and offered a management contract on the strength of a demo tape.<\/p>\n

Showcasing his phenomenal voice, five years of recording demo’s, touring, notable sell out gigs at Glasgow’s King Tut’s, London’s ‘Borderline Club’ and a support to Wet Wet Wet in front of 30,000 people at Glasgow Green. Jimi continued writing, performing and recording, appearing on Michael Barrymore’s shows ‘ My Kind of People’ & ‘Barrymore’ in 1997\/98 and went on to sing at concerts & festivals in Romania, Turkey and Holland. Living now in York, Jimi has continued writing.<\/p>\n

The vocalist moved on to spend two years as lead vocalist with Tribute Band ‘A Foreigners Journey ‘ he toured extensively in the UK and Rhodes. Meeting new friends along the way, and his voice just got better and better so a decision was made to leave “A Foreigners Journey” and\u00a0 the next adventure started. His latest project is a tribute to great American Melodic Rock with some great musicians and friends “Legends of AOR” debut gig was in Spain in front of a crowd of Rhodes Rockers, safe to say it was so emotional that tears were shed.<\/p>\n

After recently recording an album of original songs at FML studios in Scotland with Sandy Jones and Greame Duffin he is now starting a new challenge to take his music on the road, and so the Jimi Anderson Group was born. The new album \u201cLongtime Comin\u2019\u201d is a fusion of\u00a0 Classic Melodic Rock and\u00a0 AOR, and the original tunes showcase Jimi\u2019s voice perfectly.<\/p>\n
