Jim White's critically acclaimed debut album, The Mysterious
Tale of How I Shouted Wrong-Eyed Jesus, tapped into the zeitgeist of what would
soon blossom into the lo-fi Americana movement. “Back then (1997) there was
maybe twenty of us doing it - Wilco and 16 Horsepower, of course Lucinda and
Steve Earle and The Jayhawks. Now, hell, there’s a million lonesome geniuses
out there, each one singing their heart out sadder than the next.” Jim White is
known primarily for both his genre bending records like his 2001 break out
album 'No Such Place' and 2007's 'Transnormal Skiperoo', as well as his award
winning BBC documentary film 'Searching For The Wrong Eyed Jesus'.
