Shadow at Morning (2006-2010)
James played bass
and sang in the hardcore metal band Shadow At Morning from 2006
to 2010, achieving his lifelong dream of headlining Seattle's
Showbox, getting songs spun on most major radio stations in the
Seattle area, and opening for metal legends like 3 Inches of
Blood. Purchase the album "Ghosts and Legions" at iTunes or
Amazon.com or visit

Pants Required
(April 5, 2009)
On April 5th, 2009, James's incredibly
talented friends gave him the most amazing surprise 25th birthday party of
all time. Without his knowledge (despite seemingly everyone he knew being in
on it for months), they wrote, arranged, rehearsed, and
performed a 45-minute musical with a brilliantly impersonated James
as the main character, scoring the whole thing with
reinterpretations of music he'd written. The entire show is up on
youtube - click the poster above to watch the full playlist. (If you just
want to skip around,
"Of Loss" is probably the prettiest and most accessible song.
Or you could go straight to the
erotic shadow puppets in
"The Wake.")
slamDaddy (2000-2003)
From 2000 to 2003, James was the lead
singer/rhythm guitarist for an underage punk band named slamDaddy, which played everything from
Seattle teen clubs to an extremely memorable benefit concert at
Annie Wright's School for Girls in Tacoma. The band self-released two EPs, "Where Didn't We Stick It?" (2002) and "A
Kick In The Junk" (2003), and was positively reviewed on KEXP and in The Stranger before finally breaking up amiably in December of
2003, with James and Z going on to later form Shadow at Morning.
