It is said that JIMMY DALE plays the tunes you like to hear!

Whether Jimmy is performing SOLO or with his JIMMY DALE BAND, you will always have a good time listening to great music!

Jimmy Dale may be an anomaly in Los Angeles, CA! From California to Germany, from Honolulu to Italy, Jimmy is an established musician and composer well respected in the jazz circles, and popular in rock, pop, jazz and blues genres with his five piece JIMMY DALE BAND, and widely acclaimed in the reggae' community with his JIMMY DALE’S IRIE BAND, which was awarded in the "Top Ten Reggae USA" sponsored by Reggae Report.
 

Jimmy has played with legendary bands including: The Drifters, Platters, The Diamonds, The Coasters, Little Anthony and the Imperials, and the fabulous Penguins. He’s opened for Ziggy Marley, Bob Marley’s “Wailers”, Toots and the Maytals, Jimmy Cliff, Third World, and is heard playing guitar on Big Mountain’s CD “Unity” on the hit tune “Baby I Love Your Way” which sold millions. One of Jimmy’s most popular reggae’ compositions, “Rub A Dub” is included in the score of the motion picture, “Sunset Heat” starring Dennis Hopper. Other songs from his IRIE CD, “FREEDOM OF CHOICE,” can be heard on Nickelodeon’s cable network.

His recent jazz instrumentals: “Dear Mr. Benson,” a tribute to George Benson, famed guitarist and recording artist, and “Agi’s Tune”, the composition he wrote and recorded for his late wife who passed from cancer, are considered to be the most emotional and creative of Jimmy’s original tunes thus far.
