The Record Company

The Record Company write and play raw, sincere rock n' roll. Influenced by the rough honesty of their heroes - blues-men like John Lee Hooker, early punk bands like The Stooges, and rock greats like The Rolling Stones. Their sound incorporates slide guitar, distorted bass, a garage-sale Ludwig drum kit and the heartland-hued voice of Chris Vos, who grew up on a Wisconsin dairy farm. The three-man group started in late 2011, hanging up some old mics and recording live in the bass player's living room in Los Feliz, CA. The Record Company have since played concert halls across North America, opening for acts as diverse as B.B. King, Social Distortion, Buddy Guy, Grace Potter, and Trombone Shorty. The band toured Europe supporting Blackberry Smoke in Oct-Nov 2015, and their first full-length album is due out on Concord Records in February 2016.

Personal life

Jim is one of seven kids who attended Catholic School at St Ambrose. He has stated in various interviews and in his stand-up act that he hated the experience. Jim wanted to be in a band growing up because of his love for heavy metal music but would often joke that he never had the talent to play an instrument. In his late teen years, he had drug and alcohol problems and was in and out of rehab a few times. He has stated his love of hard rock music set him on a straight path in life. Jim was later a DJ on his college radio station in Hazlet, NJ WCNJ. He later mentioned after seeing Andrew Dice Clay for the first time on a Rodney Dangerfield Comedy special, he wanted a career in stand-up comedy. He would often joke on air that marriage and kids were not for him, after his girlfriend of six years committed suicide in December 2006. In August 2007, while a guest on the Howard Stern Show, Jim Florentine asked co-host Robin Quivers to go on a date with him during a show segment. Due to the attention this garnered, Quivers became tight-lipped about the topic. On July 28, 2008, Quivers announced on the radio show that she and Florentine had ended their relationship.[14] She stated that the breakup was amicable, that Florentine was "genuine and honest," and that he was the one who initiated the breakup.[15].
