C. Reilly, more... In 2019, James was invited to play with his longtime

harmony partner Erin Hawkins and band Great Willow at Laurel Canyon's

prestigious Love Street Festival, the only current LA band invited to share

the main stage bill with surviving members of 60s legends The Doors, The

Monkees, The Mamas and The Papas, and Love.

James also just might be the only songwriter you know who has had a song

he wrote featured in a question by Alex Tribek on Jeopardy! His songs have

been featured in some of the coolest shows on TV, including Six Feet

Under, True Blood and Shameless and many more. His latest

album Falling Under Spells was released to rave reviews, extensive airplay

in Europe and LA, and was named a top 20 album of the year by UK site

Blues Blues. James is a board member of the FAR-West festival and has

hosted multiple Folk Alliance performance showcases. He performs

frequently around CA, including a much talked about set at the 2023

Idyllwild Songwriter Festival.

James is currently working with Great Willow on a new live-in-studio EP

produced by GW guitarist and Grammy Winner John Would (Fiona Apple)
