   About Jimmy Nations
THIS IS THE OFFICIAL JIMMY NATIONS MYSPACE PROFILE.

Check Out the Band, Become a Fan, Listen to some Tunes, and Buy Songs and Albums at

JIMMY NATIONS COMBO on iTunes.

I grew up on a mountain near Cherokee, NC where the banjo scene in "Deliverance" was filmed.

Seasoned Media Analyst, Idiosyncratic Musician, Amature 19th Century Historian, Trivia Wiz Kid, Caretaker of the Lower East Side's Museo Loco, Mr. Johnny Fox's very own superb oddity collection: the Freakatorium (closed 2005). Besides playing & singing with my own band: THE JIMMY NATIONS COMBO, I occasionally work the guitar on other artists' recording and live performances. I also work in the publishing biz.

I was in the infamous North Carolina bands, BRICKBAT & BURNLEY BROS, back in the day, among others. A reunion show happened April 16, 2006 in San Francisco...check out our Brickbat page on myspace: BRICKBAT

My current band is the Jimmy Nations Combo: The A-Number-One Hillbilly Boogie band in New York City. I'm a part-time gurtar player with Sean Kershaw & the New Jack Ramblers, & on occasion, I collaborate in writing & playing music for live theater performance.

Thanks for stoppin' on by. Hope you dig the sounds. Rock It, Roll It & Do It To It. -- J-Nats

A woman shot just above the heart and left for dead in the sweet and low So-Cal desert known as the Inland Empire.
Josephine's death and that of her unborn son defeated by a slightly missed bullet.
She has another son with the owner of the gun that spit the misguided pellet.
She gathers the boys and retreats deep into that dirty sugar until she's ready to take back what's rightfully hers.
The Outlaw King lives!


Josephine The Outlaw King
Novel and album coming soon to a bookstore and iTunes near you!

Hear the whole story in her own words on Twitter!
