Jim is an excellent musician and community artist. I would highly recommend him for tutoring arrangement and songwriting workshops as well as guitar tuition.

I have worked with him in the past and it has been a pleasure.

Over the years, I had seen Jim perform as a member of BMX Bandits and The Soup Dragons and I owned several of his solo records. I took his University of Glasgow short course earlier this year. I found it informative, invigorating and very enjoyable. A wide range of aspects of songwriting were covered - e.g. subject matter, middle 8s, collaboration. Jim was both knowledgeable and enthusiastic.
I am sure Jim's input will kick start your songwriting. I am happy to give him my recommendation.

he’s got so much knowledge about music and the way he explains things is very easy to understand. he’s patient and not too strict either.
