Our second Snap on 2&4 event of the year will be Saturday, January 26 at 8pm and will feature bassist and vocalist Jim Ferguson.
In his early career, Jim was the bassist for NPR's "The American Popular Singer", with Eileen Farrell, where he performed with the likes of the great Joe Williams and pianist Marian McPartland.

Eventually returning to South Carolina and earning a Master of Music Degree, Jim has been a staple of the Nashville music scene since the early 80's and has performed with countless artists across multiple genres, including such jazz artists as Teddy Wilson, Kenny Burrell, Mose Allison, and Stephane Grappelli - as well as a long partnership with country/pop artist Crystal Gayle. He is faculty at both NJW and MTSU. ...
