Bio
James currently lives in Texas just outside of Austin - the capital city. He has won numerous international and american music awards during his career.

““In addition to being an outstanding musician, I've come to know James as a fellow colleague from the Air Force. As a musician, he is paving new ground in the smooth jazz idiom with refreshing sound. His music is tasteful and carefully orchestrated to deliver a relaxing groove to set the mood for any occassion. To echo the title to one of his songs, I am "Truly Blessed" to have him in my circle of friends.”
Chris Knox, Guitarist, Independent Musician worked directly with James at Suite 8 Records”
