Jimmy Sutton's Four Charms debuted their fusion of classic American music on New Years Eve, 1998. The bands intense chemistry and energetic show was an immediate hit. For four years, from 1999 to 2003, the Four Charms performed to a standing room only audience at Chicago's historic Green Mill jazz club. A quartet that is versatile in all forms of American roots styles, the Four Charms recall the sincerity and musical depth of Tiny Grimes, Merle Travis, The Treniers and Willie Dixon's Big Three Trio. The Four Charms are passionate about their music and the band has never paid attention to trends. Key elements of the Charms sound are their dynamics, guitar/sax harmonies and their call and response style, as evidenced on their original tunes, "Sherry Flip", "Dont Make Me Beg" and "Triskaidekaphobia", as well as their translations of familiar and obscure material (from Roy Brown's "Up Jumped The Devil" to the lesser known Five Blazes tune "Chicago Boogie").
Jimmy Sutton has been playing the doghouse bass since his high school days. Nominated twice by the Illinois Entertainer as the best bass player in Chicago, Sutton incorporates many diverse musical styles. He has recorded with highly acclaimed rockabilly, country and blues artists, including Ronnie Dawson, Koko Taylor, Willie Big Eyes Smith, Deke Dickerson and has shared the stage with a roster of greats, as well. Most notably, Jimmy Sutton was co-founder of Chicago's Mighty Blue Kings. You can now find Jimmy Sutton touring with The Del Moroccos, Deke Dickerson, Chicago Blues Round Robin, and performing under his own name.
