in memory of Jimmy Iversen (1959-2026)

Frank Jimmy Iversen -(December 19, 1959-January 31st, 2026)

Metal Archives shows that Jimmy worked bands like Bad Habitz, Jimmy the Fox, Blonde On Blonde, Jorn, Perfect Crime, Road, Unit Five, and You.

The music that I know from Jimmy is his work with Jorn from 2009 to 2012. Below you will find a JORN song for which Metal Archives gives songwriting credit to Jimmy.

Wikipedia (Norwegian - translated here): In 1980 he joined the pop group Unit Five as a guitarist. He later became a member of the rock band Road, and later as a guitarist and songwriter in Blonde on Blonde. He was then a guitarist and songwriter in Perfect Crime, which at the time collaborated with Bernie Marsden (Whitesnake). Iversen has always been a member of Unit Five, but always has other projects going on, such as the Thin Lizzy tribute band Bad Habitz, with Ronni Le Tekrø, among others. He participated as a guitarist and songwriter on Spirit Black with Jorn in 2009. In 2011 he released the album The Fox, under the name "Jimmy The Fox". In 2012 he participated on the compilation album by Bente Smaavik, 1979-2011. Iversen became a permanent member of Jorn in the fall of 2011, as a songwriter and guitarist. Iversen worked as a guitar teacher at Bodø Cultural School.
