    Compelling singer-songwriter & master guitarist James McMurtry is a rare musical triple-threat. His song-stories are populated by world-weary, colorful characters that often long for times different, if no better than what they're now enduring as exemplified on “Painting by Number’s” from his debut Too Long in the Wasteland. McMurtry’s recent albums continue to demonstrate his powerful lyrics and socio-political edge.

    “The truest, fiercest songwriter of his generation.” - Entertainment Weekly Columnist and Author Stephen King

    “Music that's haunting but familiar, much like the struggles he depicts.” — Washington Post

    “James writes like he's lived a lifetime.” — John Mellencamp
