About Jimmy Pettit

I'm delighted to report that I have recently been recruited as the bassist for the famed Texas Supergroup "The Flatlanders" as well as peforming with the Joe Ely Band on a regular basis after a lengthy hiatus.... I've been a part of the Austin Music Scene since the mid-seventies and have been involved in diverse projects such as the jazz/fusion band "The Shoes"(with Rick Cobb of "Bloodrock" fame), seminal Raul's punk bands "The BodySnatchers" and "The Rockin' Devils", "The Boozeweasels" and "The Joe Ely Band" ( first in the mid-eighties and re-joining again several years ago). I've recorded for Warner/Elektra and MCA/Sony, Hightone Records and Antone's Records and toured / recorded with the late John Campbell (N.Y.C. blues guitarist), Joe Ely( http://www.ely.com/), Rolling Stones' saxman Bobby Keys, David Grissom(http://www.davidgrissom.com/), Lloyd Maines, Mason Ruffner(http://www.masonruffner.com/), Joel Guzman, Cruel 13, Kelly Willis, Toni Price, Django Walker(http://www.djangowalker.com/band.html) and legendary Austin ensemble “Shoulders”( http://www.shouldersmusic.com/), among others.
