Jim Waneka, born and raised in small town Colorado, is rooted in the soil he grew up in, and his songs reflect this, as he writes about and channels the spirits of those he knows. In ‘A Different Man’, he sings about a solider whose life was turned upside down by his time in combat abroad. Waneka artfully conveys the veteran’s deep seated scars – not just the physical, but the psychological ones too.
