"If you think you''ve heard the way an acoustic guitar is to be played, think again.
This singer/songwriter is like no other" -Rising Music

"...the most interesting and innovative acoustic music in Chicago" https://www.tradebit.com

"I personally bevieve it''s a crime if DJs across the country do not play this CD"
-The IN. Observer

"The best way to describe Destination Euphoria from The Wandering Endorphin (also known as Jim Green) is country-blues mixed in with a little folk. From haunting numbers like "Sing Again" to heartfelt and melodic love songs like "You''ve Changed," Green proves himself an abundantly gifted and capable musician." -The IL Entertainer

"Lots of interesting guitar work, I like his voice, it works!" -Richard Milne 93XRT Radio

"Firefly" has been chosen as one of the TOP 100 SONGS of 2003 on https://www.tradebit.com and has been played on https://www.tradebit.com (National Public Radio)!

"I think Jim Green makes love to his guitar at night, because their is no reason for someone to be that close to a piece of wood and strings and emit the amazing sounds he does out of it. Jim has an amazing talent to provide an original sound." https://www.tradebit.com

The Wandering Endorphin is "The 2004 Guitar Idol Champion".

"The Wandering Endorphin is one Jim Green, who prostrates himself over his acoustic guitar with the same fervor some people reserve solely for sex or chocolate cake. Tracks such as the furiously-paced "Stress" elicit the aural equivalent of wide-eyed, open-mouthed staring; it''s almost impossible to hear all the sounds Green coaxes from his instrument. The intense talent required to actually make those sounds is impressive indeed." https://www.tradebit.com

"Green''s shows are a music and visual treat for the audience." -Kane County Chronicle

"..he continues his tradition of astounding the audience" -The Daily Herald

Chicago native, Jim Green, a.k.a. THE WANDERING ENDORPHIN is a 35 year old singer/songwriter who decided that the well-worn paths that other musicians adhere to were not the proper routes for his own creativity. His weapon of choice is the acoustic guitar, although he is no casual strummer. Rather, he attacks his instrument with both hands, drawing forth percussive rhythms, harmonics, and double pull-offs with a piano-like approach that often sounds like one more guitar than is actually playing. This is all done in real time with no sampling or looping devices to be found. The result is powerful acoustic folk/rock that is musically and visually stimulating. His vision lies somewhere between the solo guitar work of Michael Hedges and the songwriting of Kurt Cobain and, while it sounds like an odd pairing, Green is talented enough and genuine enough to seamlessly meld the two approaches into one cohesive whole.

Green has been a full-time musician for the past 2 1/2 years, playing venues of all types from libraries to rock clubs. He performs his music so passionately, it has won him the title, "Gand''s Guitar Idol Champion 2004" and the attention of singer/songwriter Phil Roy who has written hit songs for many well know artists such as Ray Charles, and Mavis Staples. Recently Green has found himself recording along side, two-time Grammy Winning Producer Jim Tullio, on Roy''s latest cd Compared to What.

Although Green began this journey as a solo act, his latest CD, Destination Euphoria, finds him in the company of all manner of supporting players. Cello, dobro, keys, bass, drums, and harmonica all make appearances on the record, which is in stark contrast to Green''s first release, Undistorted Light, which is a purely solo effort. The additional musicians allow Green''s vision to be heard in sharper relief, and bring out in the songs flavors ranging from pop to classical to Americana.

This is unusual, and compelling acoustic music and it is inevitable that it will connect with its audience and continue to grow its fan base. Jim Green is a freely flowing river of musical ideas and emotions and that fact, coupled with his advanced guitar technique, is why you must seek out THE WANDERING ENDORPHIN.
