JIMMOREY.COM

The Jim Morey Band is a solo to 10+ piece, low down and dirty band of Gypsy vagabonds, huffin’ an a puffin’ original New Orleans flavored Jazz and beyond…

When you listen closely, you may hear drums, trumpets, trombones, saxamaphones, pianjo (electric midi banjo), regular ol’ banjo, ukulele, mandolin, keyboard, upright bass, washboard, slide whistle, Theremin, penny whistle, kazoo, mouth harp, tambourine, afro picks, pocket lint and more. It all depends on the moon… and the bid.

Our groove du jour ranges from swirling swings to down trodden durges, maddening polkas to gypsy jukes, haunting ballads to playful jams.

We guarantee to get you shuckin’ and jivin’ or your money back.*

The Jim Morey Band available for festivals, presidential entertainment, world tours, bars, film, commercials, radio, planes, trains, buses, ships, divorce celebrations and select tupperware parties, etc. Unfortunately due to last years incident The Jim Morey Band is unable to do toga parties… We want to be the first band to play on the moon!

-Upgrade to The Jim Morey Band and Circus.

Includes the Fletcher Dance Project, live body painting, live digital art projection, living statues, fire dancers, aerialists, and other sideshow performers that we’ve picked up along the way… check for more details. (or if you want to run away and join the circus.) And… we’re all potentially affordable!

What they say:

Jim Morey Band fuses vagabond jazz and muddy river Creole with that Tom Waits style of stumblin’, rootsy rock n’ roll, sly gypsy rhythms swaggering and swinging and stomping and grooving along.

“It’s like a one-man band with four members.” – Creative Loafing Tampa Bay

Hoping to entertain you soon,

wishing well

April 6, 2009

JMBDamn near drowned in the wishing well

Got to wishing and I thought I could swim

Then I lost my balance and I fell right in

And then Splash

To the bottom

I was squirming and trying to breath

When all the sudden I looked around

All those shiny wishing coins they started to gleam

I said Wow!

Oh so beautiful

I started wishing I did more cool things

I wished I hadn’t eaten quite so much meat

Right then I heard a fish say to me

Wish you could swim

And I said, what?

I know how to swim

I think that I learned when I was just 3

At walter fuller pool my friends and me

I think I thought I knew, Im pretty

sure that I learned to swim

that’s beside the point

ive been on boat rides and even on skis

I went snorkeling out in the keys

I don’t why I’m stuck down here you know

Pretty sure that I can swim

UNMUGGED

New York City 2/02/02

I

Wake

Up around 2:22 pm.

Armored truck bumps right into my house/van

I grab my trumpet and a cup of coffee.

Then I sit down on the corner and play whatever I please

playing with the street orchestra. drifting off into the abyss of music

Gotta get to Jersey for a recording session

Got just enough money to get on the bus

Minding my own business not a care in the world

Appereared a hooded man with a gun in his pocket

He shoved it in my gut and said “gimmie all your loot”

In that moment was eternity

Fight or flight

Choose your own adventure

I might die

So I said here it is. Every last penny from the street

“Wheres the big bills sucka?” said the robber.

I play music on the street. I made every last penny you see right there on the street.

I’m trying to get ahead and catch that bus…

He looked around and said “Take your money man. Watch out around here”

He took off…

I got on the bus

unmugged

and with a newfound gratitude for life.

222

February 22, 2008

222 is a special number to me. at times throughout my travels the universe confirmed it’s sychronicity through numbers, images, spirits, phrases, and unexplainable “feelings”. i’m not necessarily numerologist or a new age guru, but i believe that its important to hear and respond to the subtle things in life as best as i can. usually when i listen, things happen that end up being important to me. most of the events are secrets for me to munch on… and they have lost relevance and power when explained, as if they are for my inner ears only… get your own numbers and see what happens for you…

so here we are on february 22nd. at 2:22pm… i’m listening universe!

personal manifestation

February 22, 2008

personal manifestation… as i learn my potential as a master manifester, i am realizing that nothing is impossible. i definitely will take the time to get into the goody details another time, but for now i am simply going to make a statement of what i want. i believe there is infinite power in making a bold affirmation to the universe concerning what i want (which already exists) and materializing it to me… that being said, here’s a list.

30′ RV solar powered

$100,000 cold hard cash

free flight to anywhere in the world for life

a multi million dollar world tour performing original music

more to come…

here it goes…

February 20, 2008

okidokie! so let’s get one thing straight… i don’t type with caps and i might not punctuate correctly; i might put the wrong emPHasis on the wrong syLAbble… some stuff might be spellt rong, and i might just blah blah blah sometimes.

so there

ive waited a good long while to get into the whole blogging thing, not because i don’t have anything to say, but more because i never wanted to take the time and effort to say it. recently, i have discovered the art of life through words and now i want to let it flow. so here it goes.

i am glad to be alive. my life is awesome. i do what i love to do with people i love and i am able to spend most of my life on a sort of rolling vacation lounging and experiencing life with someone way too special for words (though i will definitely give that a try at a later time) i am ready to see more of the world… one beautiful moment at a time. each lifetime can seem short at times and i just don’t want to miss out on any of the good stuff. and if the universe has taught me anything recently, it’s that when you boil it all down, it’s all good stuff.

i am seeking to connect with people who thrive on things outside the normal realm of the collective conscience…
including art, music, film, inventions, dynamic thoughts/ideas, travel, adventure, extreme sports, communication,
supernatural phenomena, (whatever cool/interesting/wacky thing you’re in to), etc…
I invite you to respond freely and challenge you to think outside of the box as I do the same.

One… Now… Namaste.
