Jim Baumer
США
Добавлен 20 сен 2008
Jim Baumer, the creative force behind the one-man indie-rock outfit JimBaumerME, channeled the pain from losing his son, well-known poet and environmental activist, Mark Baumer, into songwriting and lo-fi rock.
Using songwriting as a pathway towards emotional healing, while drawing on his longtime affinity for mid-90s lo-fi rock played by bands like Guided by Voice, Swearing at Motorists, and Dinosaur Jr., Baumer began recording tracks of his own, utilizing a drum pedal, electric and acoustic guitars, and populist-fueled songs.

JimBaumerME Live at the Mike'd Up Pop Up Happy Hour (Three Roads Brewing-Lynchburg)
Jim Baumer, veritable one-man-band and singer-songwriter runs through his own songs and a few covers at Three Roads Brewing for the Mike'd Up Pop Up Happy Hour hosted by TheMikeShow.
Note: My drum pedal that I use did not get picked-up in the broadcast. We ran the amp from the line out into Mike's board, but were unable to do the same thing. Attempting to mic my Peavey speaker for the drums led to feedback problems, so what you hear sounds like me doing a solo electric guitar performance, which is pretty rad and indie, I think.

Short clip of a recent instrumental I'm working on. Inspired by early 70s British bands like Led Zeppelin, Savoy Brown, and maybe, blues greats like John Lee Hooker.

Released this single prior to Election Day 2024. My hope was for a Trump victory, but after 2020, I was nervous despite certain polls saying he was in the lead by a slight margin. My feelings for President Trump have evolved since 2016 when I didn't vote for him. Despite the lies from the MSM and the propaganda thrown at him from the left, his policies that led to a robust economy from 2016 unt...

Flying Saucer Attack

"Spaceship Flying Saucer Bluze" was a highlight on my recent tour and is a good example of my angular guitar style hearkening back to mid-90s bands like Polvo, Pavement, and Dinosaur Jr. (still around). Double Drop D tuning.

This was one of my guitar jams from 2019. It appears on my full-length, "Living in Some Strange Days," my COVID release. Was nice to pull it out, dust it off, and play it on my most recent tour. Got a great response from the DIY crowd in Murfreesboro.

Releasing a new Spotify single on July 22. Here's a sample. Guitar reminds me a bit of mid-90s Pavement or Polvo. What do you think?
