Initiation into the music world began early.  Raised in Las Vegas, the child of entertainers, Jimmy Gibson has been on the road all of his life. His father, Harry the Hipster, a famous, zany jazz pianist who played all the major clubs from New York’s 52nd Street to San Francisco to Las Vegas.

At ease on the stringbass playing jazz to rock n’roll credenzas on electric bass with Johnny Hallyday, Jimmy posts his bands on Youtube for gigs, and advertises his original tunes. He composes and records.

He sells his songs, live on stage.

“…(Gibson)’s always heard it, known it, there was no need to learn it.  He learned music as a language, he has always been around music and there were alwyas instruments available.  He can play rock jazz, the blues, pop or booeie – he doesn’t care which as long as he can have them all at one time or another.”
