These include a 3-year run with Chuck Brown, Washington, DC's "Godfather of Go-Go," appearances with the Baltimore Symphony Pops Orchestra, the Harrisburg Symphony, and the Kennedy Center Orchestra. Jim's recording credits include more than 50 projects as a featured soloist as well as numerous national television spots.
