Jimmy Fink (born August 21, 1990) serves as lead vocals and guitarist for the Indonesian punk rock band Class Of Thirteen, which he co-founded with Dixxie Kadarusman.
Born in Jakarta and spent part of his childhood living in Hawthorne, California, Jimmy developed an interest in sports, specifically basketball and soccer but significantly turned out as a punk rock maniac at his late senior high school years. He met Dixxie prior of his high school graduation. Dixxie was interested of his Billie-Joe-like class pictures he saw at Jov's house, which later on became Class Of Thirteen's first drummer.
Jimmy has also been noticed to play bass for The End, an alternative pop band in 2009, but then left as the group disbanded.
Jimmy was most notable for his inability to play musical instruments before joining Class Of Thirteen. Frequently forced to have guitar practices with Dixxie, he learned to play songs quickly, covering most of Green Day's hits. The lack of skills from his guitar-playing is covered up by Class Of Thirteen's style of play, similar to the Ramones' easy listening sound and Green Day's early sounds from Dookie, which does not require much of high guitar-playing skills.
