Artist Bio:
Jim Croce was an American folk and rock singer-songwriter born on January 10, 1943, in South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He rose to fame in the early 1970s with hits such as "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown," "Time in a Bottle," and "Operator (That's Not the Way It Feels)." Croce's music was characterized by his heartfelt lyrics, storytelling, and distinctive voice.
Tragically, Jim Croce's promising career was cut short when he died in a plane crash on September 20, 1973, at the age of 30. His posthumous releases, including the album "I Got a Name," continued to be successful, solidifying his legacy as a talented musician. Croce was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1990 and his music continues to be celebrated for its emotional depth and enduring appeal.
