"Uncle Jim" Performing in Amarillo, TX

The photograph below captures Jim Griffin—fondly known as Uncle Jim—a dedicated SitarBug student for many years. Here, he is performing live at a restaurant in Amarillo, Texas, sharing his music with a small but meaningful audience.

What makes this moment special is not just the performance itself, but the journey behind it. Learning an instrument—especially one rooted in tradition like Indian classical music—is no small feat. It requires patience, discipline, and above all, love for the art.

Namaste and kudos to you, Uncle Jim! 🫡
