These days, I just keep coming back to this man.
I've decided to do things differently with this musical find. Where James is concerned, I think I will try to avoid seeking out every possible piece of information there is about him. No bios, no interviews, no EPKs, no video comments, no reviews. Nothing.
Be nice to try and enjoy this gentle music just for what it is.

'...when it hits you, you feel no pain."
Bob Marley penned a fabulous classic with a sentiment I always held to be true until recently.
As a music lover and maker, I have found very few things that can provide the sweet, pure, catch-less joy that music can. The discovery of a new sound, the first cut of a piercing lyric, or the fuzzy glow of a well-worn but never tired classic are moments we were all born to experience over and over again.
However despite all this, I must admit that I recently experienced music related pain. After fully immersing myself in the business of making and sharing music, I stepped away. Indefinitely.
I was soooo not prepared for the pain of such a loss, and after passing through all the stages of grief, answering all most of my deep, secret questions, I came full circle, and am back in the bosom of a great love.
So for me, music hit and I felt pain, but it must have been a pain worth experiencing, because here I am....again. xx
