James Hearne New York
Powerhouse vocals over woodsy guitars, literate songs times wry banter, floor-to-ceiling dynamics plus wall-to-wall heart.
James Hearne recommends:
The Space Race
by The Standing Cinema
Beatlesque in the best sense of the word. These guys are sharp dressers, sharp players, and generally upstanding citizens. Dear, dear friends of mine.

Vs. the Sophomore Slump
by Venice Sunlight
Riffy power-pop with hooks to die for. High-energy and low-bullshit. I would play with these dudes every night of the week and twice on Saturday night (except we'd probably be too drunk after one).

On So Thin A Line
by The Way Home
The "Mr. Hyde" to my "Dr. Jekyll." Or is it the other way around? Anyway, this is me only way louder and with more four part harmonies. And, ya know, a few other guys.
