 JIM McGREEVEY:...Mr. Doo Wop...handles the baritone vocals with maximum finesse and does some pretty fantastic lead work, as well!A Brooklyn boy, Jim has been charming the Doo Wop crowd, since his high school days, when he sang with "Eddie & The Emeralds" at St. Francis Prep.

Jim has enjoyed a long and prosperous run throughout the south. In July, 2006, Jim received a call from "The Saints", who had, inadvertently, surfed on to his website.

Ultimately, Jim met with "The Saints" for some Doo Wop jam sessions and an instant bond was formed as well as a terrific blend of  harmony...it quickly became apparent that he was a perfect match for the group.

It wasn't long before a mutual decision was made and Jim became a member of "The Saints". Jim can't wait to put his finishing touches on "Lola & The Saints" latest CD.
