Hailing from Glasgow, Mullen's virtuosity has earned him a revered place among Europe's most distinguished jazz guitarists, a sentiment echoed by Jazzwise, labelling him as "one of today's preeminent jazz guitarists."

His musical journey has intertwined with iconic bands of the '70s and '80s, such as Brian Auger's "Oblivion Express," The Average White Band, and his own highly acclaimed jazz-funk sensation "Morrissey-Mullen."

    A very long time ago (1969?), I used to frequent a cellar pub in Glasgow called Burns Howff.
    The house band were called Power & featured Maggie Bell on vocals, Les Harvey (brother of Alex Harvey) on guitar with Jim Dewar on bass & vocals. Keyboard & drummer I don't recall.
    Towards the middle of the set this giant, skinny guy with black bushy hair would saunter on to the tiny stage & play what looked like a toy guitar in this weird style, just using his thumb.
    Once seen, Jim Mullen was unforgettable.
    Nice to see him doing what he loves.

    Wonderful compositions seamlessly evoking the occasion and the venue. The interplay and humour in Jim’s playing in the trio is a real treat and masterclass of improvisation. Jim and another great master of this style of voicing, Canadian Ed Bickert created
    compositions that will inspire and influence listeners for years to come. Seaside and wonderful vibes. Keep up the great work with this event and already looking forward to seeing the lineup for 2024.🇨🇦

    i mean, you can't ignore it - the elephant - tremendous demonstration for his vintage. it is a fair statement since, 1) its true and 2) we've all seen some aging hero's that really can't touch what made'em hero's. the contrast begs recognition of the this man, an extreme outlier and very talented.
