Random in May

There’s a new song up on the Myspace site. This month’s random OTHER song is called “Before This Moment Dies.” Meant to be a romantic and playfull song for us old guys

The longer my hair gets the more OBVIOUSLY grey it is. So I go to war inside – I actually really dig it. I earned every grey hair and the salt and pepper vibe blends nicely with all the black and white I wear. BUT – there is this constant reminder. I live and work in a realy young world. This is a world that calls my Grey Crown a Curse.

So, I am a 36 year old at war within himself. Do I look older than I really am? Do I act younger than I really am? I know this: I’ve still got daring, and I’ve still got dreams. Still got me 2 wishes and 8 lives to redeem. I still got swagger and I still got style. Still got enough leg for another mile. And tonight I’m feeling restless and impulsive and unwise. So baby take my hand before this moment dies.

Grrrr.

Redeeming the Days EP

Redeeming the Days CoverThe new EP will be back in my hands soon. In the meantime, I have put a BONUS VERSION of the EP up for sale on the Myspace Site. When the EP comes out it will include 6 songs – Dawn, Permanent, Foreign is Familiar, Blue Horizon, Fourteen, and Room to Run. On the myspace site, I’ve included 3 bonus tracks for sale – Just a Question, Can Not Close My Heart, and Someone.

This process of trying to get a CD released has been a tricky one filled with starts and stops over the last three years. Universal put the “Echo” project together and then the distribution deal they were negotiating fell apart. Finally, we started another record with Monroe Jones and Eb+Flo Records. We stopped after a few songs to begin shopping for distribution for we had spent all of the money. No one has ever climbed on board to partner with us so we just decided to put out some of what we’ve done as an indie EP.

I’ll have the CD’s for sale as soon as they’re in my hands. In the meantime, head over to the Myspace store and grab yourself a copy.

Peace,
James
