About Me

Greene Reveal - "Karakul Carpets VA"
Upcoming Shows:
Thanks to everyone for supporting at Magic City for the Killswitch Engage/Everytime I Die/The Dillinger Escape Plan/Parkway Drive show. We had 1400 people come out! More cool stuff is on the way! Thanks to everyone that helped to promote. Special thanks to the members of Don't Ask, The Jims, and Messianide. As always, thanks to our sponsors at Hometown Coffee House and Sound Go Round.

Hey there. My name is James. I have promoted shows in Binghamton, Owego, Ithaca, and Syracuse, NY. Check out the music section for a list of the bands I have booked and promoted.
Over the last five years, I have been fortunate enough to work with some amazing bands. Some of the bands I really enjoyed working with are Wheatus, Self Against City, Mayday Parade, A Day At The Fair, Homegrown, House of Fools, Brandtson, mc chris, The Operation, Madison, Thin Dark Line, Race the Sun and The Classic Crime. I have also got to meet some cool people in great bands including members of All Time Low, Element 101, Further Seems Forever, Caffeine, Avenue B, Amber Love, Busted/Son of Dork (James Bourne), Love Hate Hero, The AKAs, and more! I also got to work really closely on tours and dates for Brynne Calleran, Ashley Sloggett, The Midnight Renewal, Between Home and Serenity, Someday Never, The Degenerates, and The Downfall of Richard Chase.
I have collaborated on shows with Mike Burrell, Pop Left Music, SubCat Records, Aux Records, Tragic Hero Records, Nowhere, PA Records, Nowhere, PA Productions, Two-Toned Entertainment, Ashley Stewart, Alex Simko, Basement Audio and Hometown Coffee House.
