Jim Keller at The Bitter End

About

Jim Keller, who first found fame 40 years ago when he penned the infectious anthem "867-5309/Jenny" for Tommy Tutone, enters 2026 in the throes of a creative renaissance. His latest album, End of the World, features some of the strongest writing of his career and has been on the Americana charts since its release in October. He brings those songs to The Bitter End on March 17, along with the album's producer and multi-instrumentalist, Adam Minkoff (Graham Nash), drummer Yuval Lion (David Byrne), keyboardist Todd Caldwell (Crosby, Stills & Nash), and bassist Jacob Silver (Natalie Merchant), plus, in all likelihood, surprise guests to form what Keller calls his Usual Mess.
