An undisputed expert in the fine art of making hit music, Jim Messina’s legacy of musical genius

spans five decades, three super groups, a vibrant solo career and scores of producing and
engineering credits.
While acting as producer/audio engineer for Rock & Roll Hall of Famers Buffalo Springfield,
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. After three successful albums, Jim was ready for a change
and left to return to his passion for producing music. He signed as an independent producer
with Columbia Records.
In November 1970, the Columbia asked Jim to work with an unknown Kenny Loggins. While
helping Kenny get ready for a record and touring, the two discovered that 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 November of 1971 and an accidental duo was formed.
Over the next seven years, Loggins & Messina released eight hit albums, had scores of hit songs
and sold over 16 million albums. They had become one of rock’s most successful recording
duos ever, but it was time for the duo to go their separate ways.
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. His latest release, In the
Groove, includes selected hits from all three of Jim’s previous bands, as well as several of his
solo works.
Touring the country and playing sold-out shows, Jim says that he’s enjoying discovering who he
is, where he’s been and, most significantly, where he’s going.
