About the Artist
Gigging since age 14 and a career musician all of his adult life, Jim’s been around the musical block. He’s got a comfortable, deep groove and a restless imagination. Smart and earthy, his songs tickle your brain while they move your heart. It’s a unique blend of humor, catchy melodies, unblinking observation of human frailty and compassion for his fellow travelers - not to mention monster guitar playing and vocals. A finalist in the Kerrville Folk Festival’s New Folk songwriting competition in 2000, Jim has been winning over audiences everywhere.
Album Description
The tunes on this CD cut through quite a few musical alleys and hop lots of stylistic fences, from the thoughtful solo guitar pieces “Bye” and “Before You Know It” to the full-band extravaganzas “Falling Into It” and “Get To Me”, from the funk-rock of “Be Alright” to the reggae of “Wake Up” to the jump swing of “How Do I Look”. Twelve songs of love, fear, insanity and natural disasters, catchy as the flu and uniquely Jim Bizer.
Closer To The Surface, Music, Jim Bizer, 12 songs of love, fear, insanity and natural disasters - a potent concoction of folk, funk, rock and world music. Smart, moving and "got that IT".
