What came first the singing or the suits? Well, you can find out this week when we connect with the smooth dresser with the captivating voice – Jim Namio.
Jim has been a lifelong creator -- whether it was writing as a child while listening to film soundtracks, developing into a nationally recognized acrylic artist in high school, or making fabulous meals while working at some of Kenosha’s iconic restaurants.
A few decades ago, Jim, never known for his singing, decided to give karaoke a try and fell in love with recreating the soulful sounds of Sinatra and the like which he grew up surrounded by.
These days, Jim rarely gets out on karaoke nights, as he has grown to become an amazing entertainer establishing a classic nightclub environment with The Jim Namio Show – for an evening of Rat Pack sounds with the smooth voice of Jim Namio - Follow him on Facebook for all the details on where he will be this season!
