From the live stages of Second City and “Saturday Night Live” to the soundstages of "About Last Night,” "K-9,” "Mr. Destiny,” "Return to Me," ABC TV's long-running comedy series, "According to Jim,” and, most recently, the bright lights of Broadway, he has taken everything life’s thrown at him and hit it out of the park. And, by the way, he's been having a blast.
Speaking of "According to Jim," the hit series happened to be very heavily influenced by the Sacred Hearts. Jim and the boys wrote and recorded the music for the show, and John and Tony were regular members of the cast.
So anyway, one day Dan Aykroyd asks him to join the Blues Brothers Band as Brother Zee, which he accepted.
So, to get ready to play with the Blues Brothers, Belushi crashes rehearsals of the House of Blues’ own band, The Sacred Hearts. He sits in with the band- laughing, acting, singing, dancing. In a word: performing. It turns out that Jim was right because those rehearsals were "a whole lotta fun." So much fun, in fact, that for the last fifteen years the band has been Jim Belushi and the Sacred Hearts.
