I wouldn't say it's basically an MMJ album. Jim might be the main creative design, but everyone in MMJ is one of the best at what they do currently. I honestly hope it's acoustic or something totally different. If its just a rock album under the name Yim Yames I may be bummed.


Also, here's to hoping a Yim solo tour happens.

Definitely looking forward to this, expect something both unique and familiar.

Jim is now officially involved in planning/advising the Newport Folk Festival, so I would think an appearance there next July is guaranteed.

Well Chocolate and Ice was basically a Jim solo album and a ton of other MMJ stuff was too so wamsankas isn't far off.
