Biografi Artis
Jimmie Dale Gilmore is one of the founding fathers of progressive country. His recording career began with the Flatlanders. He and his Lubbock singer-songwriter cohorts Joe Ely and Butch Hancock recorded the first Flatlanders album in 1972, but it didn't see widespread release until years later. In the late '80s, Gilmore began a solo recording career in earnest, and by the '90s he'd become one of the most revered singers in modern country music, particularly admired by the younger alt-country artists.
