Jimi Needles' musical roots are in hip hop, soul, funk, and disco, but on the turntables he combines pin-point scratching, intricate cuts, breaks, and bass music to craft a unique and high-energy sound that spans genres and keeps the crowd moving! His dynamic sets always pay homage to old-school classics while blending modern sounds, ensuring every performance is one-of-a-kind.

Known for his genre-defying party mixtapes, deck-defying festival performances, and an array of bootlegs and original productions on labels like Swing & Bass, Thick Boy Records, and Jungle Strikes, Jimi has built a reputation as both a skilled turntablist and an innovative producer.

In November 2024, he released his debut album, ''Ample Clearance'', a self-produced project that showcases his versatility as an artist, as a writer, a DJ and a producer. Jimi is also one of the tour DJs for the Symphonica Orchestra, adding his super-tight skills to their live and electric renditions of club classic dance hits.

In southern California circa 2004, the rockabilly scene was at a fever pitch. Bands were popping up left and right. Pompadours and doghouse basses were standard. SixGun came with a straight ahead approach and a bit more edge than most. A bit more punk than greaser, but a prominent place in the scene nonetheless. After a year of local shows, we hit the road. We toured the western third of the US for about a year and a half, and built a really strong fanbase via Myspace. Yeah, it’s been a while. Back then, we had some radio play, played with The Misfits, The Violent Femmes, Dead Kennedy’s, and a ton of other bands. Obviously, those days are gone, and we’re not in southern California anymore. Recently, the catalog of music has been revived, and a new roster of supporting members have been recruited to get out and play this stuff live again. Now, we’re heading into 2019, planning on re-recording and finishing the previous second album, and then writing a ton of new shit. 

The live shows are where it’s at. 

Rock and Roll is fun to listen to, but it’s even more fun to watch. Come see us play.
