Born and raised deep in the hills of southern West Virginia, Jimmy Lykens grew up in a small coal camp in Raleigh county called Eunice, playing in the same hills and creeks that his family had called home for many generations. Living with the songs and stories that told so well of the struggles and joys of life in coal country and Appalachia, at large, have left a lasting impression on Jimmy, whose songwriting has been likened to that of Townes Van Zandt. “Ballad of a Bad Man” is the first single from Jimmy’s forthcoming EP, Out of These Walls.
