Biography

What started as a way for brothers Dan Wilson (bassist) and Doug Wilson (drummer) to play music together, No Drinks For Jimmy formed in 1998 primarily as a bar band to play radio hits to the crowds around the Baltimore/Washington metropolitan area. Vocalist Kurt Lobdell has been with the band from the very start. Guitarist Joe Chichetti joined in 2003. Their sound is a mix of post-grunge radio rock (Matchbox 20), 90's Alternative (The Smashing Pumpkins) and late 90s/Early 2000s Power Pop (Blink 182) with a dash of new hard rock. In 2015, No Drinks For Jimmy decided to focus on writing, recording, and releasing all original music. In 2017, No Drinks For Jimmy released the 4-song original EP 'Find The Fourth'. In May of 2021, No Drinks for Jimmy released their first full length album 'Verse•Chorus•Rise'. Staying true to guitar driven tunes, thundering bass lines and pounding percussion, NDFJ thrills.
