Latest interview:

Jeremy James
"In a city like New York, with an abundance of talented singers and musicians, it can be difficult for an emerging artist to be heard, much less create anticipation for their debut CD. But that’s precisely what singer/songwriter Jeremy James has managed to do, and hearing a few tracks off his forthcoming CD quickly explains why he’s an artist to watch in 2008 and beyond."
