Welcome!
Hello and thanks for visiting!
My name is Jimmy Cruz. I’m an Atlanta-area musician. I play electric and acoustic guitars and also bass guitar. Additionally I'm a professional guitar instructor.
I live with my beautiful wife, Cheryl and between us we have 5 grown kids and 2 grandchildren.
There's a collection of different things here: a little about me, videos, some of music, and blog posts.
ORIGINAL WORKS AND MUSICAL COLLABORATIONS
Some of my original music along with collaborations done with other artists throughout the years can be heard on the Music page.
There are a number of different musical styles represented there including blues, jazz, rock, pop and acoustic stylings.
Presently, I have an ongoing project involving arranging and recording jazz renditions of some of my favorite gospel hymns. Those can be heard on my blog post about it.
