Jim Lang was born and raised just outside Kansas City. Although largely self-taught, he studied music briefly at the Conservatory of Music in Kansas City. He also studied theater at Northwestern University. After acting professionally for several years in Chicago, he served a three year stint as composer and musical director of the Goodman Theater's Free Street Theater Project where he did pioneering work in integrating prerecorded tapes and synthesizers with live musicians and actors.
