"I just got the Bedroom Scene CD which I absolutely love."
- Alexander King, RPM Music Director, WRAS Atlanta
"Met A Girl is my new favorite song."
- Chris Douridas, "New Ground"- KCRW Los Angeles
"It's said that fine art often comes from pain; the
mating of discomfort with desire can produce something
special. That's if you're not consumed by it before
birth. J.Holmes' impressive release Bedroom Scene is
here and he ought to be all smiles and proud."
- Chris Pauls, Contributing Writer, The Onion

J.Holmes is a musician, songwriter, and producer
living in Los Angeles. Until recently, he made his
home in the San Francisco bay area. It was there he
played keyboards for the soul-jazz band Overgold,
performing regularly in nightclubs around town, and
recording, producing and releasing the group's self
titled cd. At this same time he was busy producing
and deejaying on various underground hip hop tapes.
He is assembling a compilation of these tracks to be
released in the near future, to be entitled Woodward
Sessions.
He worked an office job in SF to support his musical
endeavors, but soon grew bored of the nine to five
life. So with a small savings from that
day job he departed on a year-long round-the-world trip,
backpacking throughout Southeast Asia, India, and
Europe. When he returned home he set to work on this album.
Bedroom Scene is a concept / trip hop / indie record.
While it has its individual songs, ideally the album
is intended to be heard as one aural collage piece.
The music itself ranges from heavy, plodding, trip hop
beats, to Satie-style piano instrumentals. From
spooky pseudo-ragtime sing-alongs, to groovy bossa
nova loops sprinkled with fender rhodes melodies. The
record celebrates the lives and fantasy lives of
various down-and-out real-life characters - loners and
misfits, has beens and wanna bes, the misunderstood
and the misled. And while the subjects may sometimes
seem pathetic, the artist's portraits are never less
than sincere. They are drawn with compassion,
understanding, and most of all, humor. It's this sly
sense of humor that is maintained throughout, even
while backed by often haunting and beautiful musical
themes.
