The James Wesley Blues Band is a hard workin', hard rockin' endevor. I (JW) try to keep it real and produce real music for real people in the modern times.
I had some bands in the army and got to play with one of the best drummers ever, Ken Jones. After that, Ken and I formed a couple of more bands, and I met up with a gentleman by the name of Rick Caven. We worked together writing many songs and we will be sharing some of these in the future.
I am located in Sunny Lodi California, home of some of the best grapes and farm land on earth. We have the delta, which has helped me form my blues rock style.
I love all music, especially guitar based music. I would site Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd, SRV, Robin Trower, Ian Hunter, Mick Ralphs, Mick Ronson as major influences.
I Record on my computer, with 2 Laylas hooked into a mackie board. I sequence the drums with ACID or FL Studio, and use Adobe Audition to track it out with. After the drums are done, I mostly perform the rest of the tracks myself.
I hope that you find my music something you will enjoy listening to.
