Jimy Bleu
Jimy Bleu (born December 8, 1953 in New York City, NY) is an American guitarist, best known for being the longest running Jimi Hendrix Tribute artist in the world. Mr. Bleu has performed as Hendrix for over 50 years, since 1968, most notably with KISS THE SKY, known as the "World's Greatest Tribute" to Jimi Hendrix. Bleu is one of the only Hendrix tribute specialists ever to actually be left-handed like Hendrix himself and able to perform all his famous guitar gymnastic moves like playing behind his back, head, between his legs and with his teeth. Bleu is so well respected for his ability to perform as Hendrix that former Jimi Hendrix bassist, Billy Cox made Bleu a member of his touring group, THE BAND OF GYPSYS EXPERIENCE. Bleu has also performed with former Hendrix Woodstock band members, Gerardo Velez and Juma Sultan and been given referenced approval by Buddy Miles, former Hendrix drummer with the Band of Gypsys.

A talented multi-instrumentalist, Jimy Bleu was trained at NYC's 'Famed' High School for the Performing Arts and at Berklee College of Music. He became a Columbia Recording artist in the 1990s with his band, Jimy Bleu & The Divinity, and drew comparisons to Prince early in his original music career as one of the first virtuosic guitarists to front an all-female funk-rock fusion backing band. He has backed-up, tour with or opened for such notaries as Aerosmith, Wilson Pickett, Slade, Betty Wright, J.Geils Band, Joe Tex, Foghat, New Birth, Al Green, Shirley Caesar, The Ohio Players, Graham Central Station, Brook Benton and Lonnie Youngblood and more and continues to work consistently as NYC professional recording session musician and studio producer of new artists.

Dedicated to consistently continuing his Hendrix tribute show throughout his career, Bleu currently tours with KISS THE SKY but has also produced a tribute to 70s Soul Singers, ROMANTASY, honoring the music of Al Green, Curtis Mayfield and more.
