Let's make this birthday one to remember.

69 years old (Born on July 12, 1955)

Happy Birthday, Jimmy! You're still singing strong enough to make Woody Guthrie smile. From those unforgettable nights lighting up Austin's music scene to your legendary tribute performances that put you on the national stage—your soulful voice and heartfelt tunes always hit just the right note.

Another year older, but you're clearly like a vintage guitar: timeless, authentic, and somehow sounding even better each time around! Keep sharing stories through song; we can't wait for another encore from our favorite folk troubadour. Here's wishing you plenty of laughin', pickin' and grinnin' today—you've earned every cheerful chord. Happy birthday!
