Jimmy Eat World: Singer-Songwriter in New York

About Jimmy Eat World

Jimmy Eat World is an American rock band that began in Mesa, Arizona in 1993, built around the songwriting and vocals of Jim Adkins alongside Tom Linton, Rick Burch, and Zach Lind. Across a decade-spanning catalog of studio albums, the group has moved between pop-leaning hooks and louder, guitar-forward arrangements without abandoning its core band format. In New York City, they appear at venues including Brooklyn Paramount and The Rooftop at Pier 17, with bills that have also included acts such as The Get Up Kids, Hey Mercedes, THRICE, and Girls Against Boys. Their live sets favor direct, tightly structured performances over spectacle.
