An independent singer-songwriter originally from Nevada City, CA, James has been writing and producing his own music for over a decade. His “do-it-yourself” methods have yielded three albums of diverse musical style and influence; Here Nor There (2010), Making It Right Again (2005), and Let Me In (2003).
Each album presents a world of bitter-sweet joy wrapped up in musical styles ranging from Alternative Rock to Folk to Indie Pop with a lot of stops in between. His music pulls from many influences from the past and brings them into a modern setting with a feeling and spirit that is uniquely his.
Not much, but when I do I really enjoy it.
