— ELMORE MAGAZINE

While acting as producer/audio engineer for Rock & Roll Hall of Famers Buffalo Springfield, Jim Messina ultimately joined the band as its’ Bass Player. When “the Springfield” disbanded in 1968, Jim and fellow bandmate Richie Furay formed Poco. With Jim on Lead Guitar, Poco defined a new musical genre, Country Rock.

In 1970, Columbia Records asked Jim to work with an unknown Kenny Loggins. While helping Kenny get ready for a record and touring, the two discovered they worked well together and Jim agreed to sit in on Kenny’s first album. Kenny Loggins with Jim Messina Sittin’ In was released in 1971 and an accidental duo was formed. Over the next 7 years, Loggins & Messina released 8 hit albums, had scores of hit songs (“Danny’s Song”, “House at Pooh Corner”, and “Your Mama Don’t Dance”) and sold over 16 million albums. They were one of rock’s most successful recording duos ever!

After a series of celebrated solo acoustic tours, Jim formed a band made of acclaimed musicians who have played with him at various points in his career. Messina’s band currently includes: Craig Thomas (Saxophone), Jim Frazier (Keys), Michael Brady (Bass), and Dave Beyer (Drums).
