Artist History Two conflicting stories exist of the origin of Jimmy and the Wonder Squirrels. The first is that Jimmy was fed up with the current offering of popular music. "Hey," he said, "I don't have to put up with this. I can start my own band, and play music that I actually want to listen to. Dude!" So he went to Orem High, the only high school in the state with classy musicians, and recruited the Wonder Squirrels. The second says that they started the band for an english class assignment, but is most likely entirely fabricated.
