Jim Keller Music

✨We are so excited to announce our special guest for our February 7th Helm Family Midnight Ramble, Jim Keller!! 🎉

Four decades after he and his band, Tommy Tutone, topped the charts with “867-5309/Jenny,” Jim Keller continues his prolific, late-career renaissance with End Of The World. Recorded with Adam Minkoff (Graham Nash, Doyle Bramhall II) and co-written with Byron Isaacs (The Lumineers, Levon Helm), the record offers a wry, sardonic take on modern life, balancing sharp wit and earnest sincerity as it reckons with loss, mortality, resilience, and hope. The songs are lean and intoxicating, driven by tight, playful arrangements, and the performances are punchy and raw, infusing Keller’s distinctive mix of pub rock, new wave, and power pop with a defiant optimism that insists on finding joy and beauty, even as the walls come tumbling down.

In 2009, Keller returned to performing and recording with Sunshine In My Pocket, the first in a series of critically acclaimed solo records that would garner profiles everywhere from NPR to The New Yorker.
