It’s hard to describe Jimmy Needham.  Over the last 9 years he’s been steadily building a stand-out career amongst high-calibre soul, funk, and blues legends, and yet you can’t really hold him to any one expression.

Jimmy Needham releases 'The Hymns Sessions: Vol. 1'

From his label debut ’Speak’, to ‘Nightlights’, then ‘Clear the Stage’, you’re guaranteed to feel a foot tap, but one that takes the rich lyrics deep into your bones – it’s good for the soul.

His latest project ‘The Hymns Sessions: Vol. 1’ sees Jimmy bring his genre-bending sound and immersive vocal tones to the iconic worship ballads that have defined the faith of thousands. 
 
Needham has a delicate honour for the language and the lessons contained in each, yet reinvigorates them with a potency that allows a new generation to embrace them.
