An Evening with Jim Boggia

Philly's Jim Boggia visits The Living Room for an intimate evening of original music and most certainly some surprises.

For more than 20 years, Jim Boggia has been winning over fans, critics, contemporaries and luminaries alike with his uncompromising devotion to the sort of winsomely nostalgic, emotionally direct songcraft that's impervious to age. His sonically intelligent retro-pop manifesto informs three studio albums2001's "Fidelity Is the Enemy," 2005's "Safe in Sound" and 2008's "Misadventures in Stereo" and he's worked with a startling array of artists, including Aimee Mann, Joan Osborne, David Byrne, Elvis Costello, Bonnie Raitt, Bernadette Peters, NRBQ's Big Al Anderson, famed Beach Boys lyricist Tony Asher, MC5 guitarist Wayne Kramer, Attractions drummer Pete Thomas, and countless others. Also, an accomplished singer and guitarist, Boggia performs with the well-known New York Citybased Beatles tribute band, the Fab Faux, as well as Mad Dogs & Dominos, an 18-piece collective headed by a heavyweight roster that includes Blues Brothers alum Lou Marini and producer John Leventhal. Oh, and he plays a mean ukulele. For more information visit www.jimboggia.com.
