Jimi Nelson brings his authentic country sound to Gilley's Saloon, blending classic and modern country influences into a unique musical experience. Drawing inspiration from legends like Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, and Waylon Jennings, as well as contemporary artists such as Jason Aldean and Keith Urban, Nelson delivers both original compositions and country favorites. His performance showcases his guitar prowess and songwriting talent, developed since first picking up the instrument at age 12.
Currently touring in support of his album "Hangovers & Heartaches," Nelson's show features his original music alongside carefully selected country classics. His background, which includes collaborations with members of notable musical families like the Avalons and Everlys, adds depth to his performance style that bridges traditional and contemporary country music.
