Jimbo Jackson

This singer/songwriter was the longtime frontman and founder of Pittsburgh’s award-winning band “Jimbo and the Soupbones”. Jimbo has a larger-than-life, soulful voice and his charm is infectious.

Jimbo crosses musical genres without apology, resulting in a fresh, yet familiar blend of funk, rock, soul and blues that excludes no listener. He offers both original music and soulful, stripped-down covers of the songs that you forgot you loved as well as current classics.

The show features this multi-instrumentalist and his looping system.  Whether the crowd needs soft acoustic tones for an intimate performance or craving that full band sound with a small footprint, Jimbo is your go-to maestro. Passion, charisma, and an unwavering love for people and music are all woven into every note of Jimbos performance. The authentic comedy serves as a bonus to an already magnificent show.

If you’re lucky, you’ll catch him (or bok him!) with his longtime musical brother and guitarist Jason Caliguri. Jason is an accomplished and award-winning guitarist with touch, feel, tone and energy to match anything that the performance needs. His technical mastery of the instrument is evident, and his quick-witted comebacks serve as the perfect complement to Jimbo’s, sometimes off-script nature.
