                   Jim Fish

"Fish" was born with a love of nature and her moving waters. From the rhythmic roll of an ocean wave to the gurgling murmurs of the Ozark springs of his youth - water stirs his soul. Connects him to the planet as it carries him away! 

Lucky for us he's now sharing his passion for making music on a old wooden box with 6 metal strings tuned up tight. His nickname of "Fish" is truly appropriate for this free flowing troubadour!

Jim performs and write songs with a toe tapping energy that is a natural part of his Ozark roots. His home grown musical style makes a rhythmic connection with country-bluegrass and folk-rock audiences everywhere. It's a bit contagious and when questioned he calls his musical genre "mountain country".  

Jim’s relentless desire to connect with his audience makes for a passionate performance. Music sets are filled with original songs as well as classic covers set to his energetic style. Being influenced by the likes of Merle Haggard, David Gates, Neil Young, Tom Petty, Steve Earle, Chris Stapleton and many other talented songwriters. Choosing songs that create an acoustic performance that go over well with the "Ozark" that still hides in his voice. He has developed something uniquely his own and engagingly entertaining to those within earshot!

A prestigious contest for performing songwriters began in 1996 with the radio station KRCL 90.9 and continues to bring in talented performing songwriters from around the United States every year.

"I met Jim Fish back before he had a first name. He was just "Fish". EVERYONE knew who you were talking about when you said his name. Creative, thought provoking music and talent with that guitar! We don't get to hang like we did back in the day, but his music still brings a big smile to my face!  Jay Fugatt
