Jim Aitken

Jim Aitken is relatively "late to the table" as someone who writes his own lyrics and accompanying music. His Songs are brought to life by Select and Great Artists! "The Promise", won "The Muse Songwriters" monthly Lyric Competition and achieved Finalist. In the UKSC! The Lyric, "Sunset" was also Finalist in the UKSC! It has still to be Recorded and Released! Other songs have achieved Semi Finalist status over the last two years. Jim leans towards songs with a story! E.g. Leonard Cohen and Gordon Lightfoot). Tim Patterson, on Broadjam, brings the (more Country Style) songs to life! "Reach The Sky", "My Last Farewell",  "One Night Stand" and, “I See Her Dancing”!   Kimberley Dunn elevates the songs, "The Promise", "Drift Away" and "One Night Stand" so beautifully! "Covid started a Journey Jim wishes to continue"

Sounds Like: Bernie Taupin

Don't know why I keep writing them.
The Public do not get to hear them since they are not played on Commercial radio!
Must be same for your music!

Hi Jeana, Really great to hear from you! Thanks for your kind message.
Sorry I have not been in touch for a while. I have been chasing my tail this Summer!
Golf, Bowls, Allottment (growing Veg) Promoting my songs in Playlists, Creating music and lost an Uncle, Neice and a couple of good friends etc!

How did you know of One Night Stand Winning?
I have not seen anything on the site.
It carries a free years subscription.
Im afraid i do not hold out much hope of achieving anything on Broadjam apart from this Internal Comp!
My music which has been selected by Promoters on here has produced No Return through Licensing!

How are you keeping, whats are the dogs up to and whats new on your Music?
I have listened to your music on ocassions. Time is not mine!
What do you recommend I should listen to?
Cheers, Jim
