...was the sole thought of Jimmy Martin, when he moved from Luxembourg to Los Angeles at the age of 19 to become a professional musician. Just having arrived there, he quickly became a part of the local music scene and started playing in several bands. This was the beginning of Jimmys career, which has hugely developed not only as an artist, but also as a well known and respected composer and producer.After Jimmys arrival in the states, well known music lawyer Michael Shapiro soon discovered Jimmys talent and took him under his wing, introducing Jimmy to various well respected songwriters and producers such as Grammy Award winner Clif Magness (Avril Lavigne, Kelly Clarkson, Celine Dion) . His first single "Leaving it all behind" was released in 1986 and voted "newcomer song of the week" by RTL.In 1987 Jimmy joined Fisc, France's number one rock export band.

The single "Drivin Through The Pourin Rain"was written by Desmond Child, famous for his work with Bon Jovi , Ricky Martin and Cher.In 1994 upon invitation from IWTP (International Womens Tennis Association) Jimmy wrote and performed the song "Martina your in our hearts" for Martina Navratilova.
