In the fall of 2010, Jim Heffernan decided to turn Rejouissance into a collaborative, heavier band with Jeff Walter, Matt St. Laurent, Mike Harriff, and Damian Vallelonga. They wanted to write new songs, collectively, and change the project.
Jim first played under his own name for the first time in the East Village Halloween weekend. He went on to write, record and release his first solo EP "The Distant Sound", comprised of stripped down versions of songs from rejouissance and urchins of the night.
In March of 2011, he completed "The Wall By the Ocean" EP, with all new original songs.
Jim is playing extensively in the North East, specifically New York, sharing bills with Henry Cluney from Stiff Little Fingers, Vinnie and Brendan from the Movie Life, and the Scarlet Ending.
Currently, Jim is working on a split 7 inch with Greg Macpherson as well as experimenting in a few movie soundtrack projects.
The first two EP's "The Distant Sound" and "The Wall By the Ocean" available now on itunes!
