Jim Hinton is a professional folksinger, songwriter, and arranger. In the classic
style of the bard, Jim offers a vast repertoire of songs from decades of songwriting and
performing Irish and classic folk songs in pubs and coffee houses. He sings in a relaxed
baritone and accompanies himself on the guitar and the mandocello.
Jim’s knowledge as a folklorist and his ability as a storyteller add depth and relevance to
his performance. His gently ironic sense of humor connects with listeners of all ages.
