I know I have been remiss in keeping up my blog, that's because I have been busy with travels and family. I also am stagnant because I was wanting to give this young man a rave review. We have been to see him twice lately and will continue to visit his shows when ever he is withing driving distance.

When we first discovered jAm, I blogged about him here. Now this should not be taken lightly! I, after all, am the one that discovered Willie Nelson! Yes. Back in the mid seventies I saw him on some obscure late night TV show called Austin City Limits. I told all my friends that they were going to have to see this guy. Sure enough. Willie's career sky rocketed! So I am telling you now, this guy is going places.

I was going to blog about his talent but in researching I find that everyone is impressed already with his talent. Not only is his writing technically sound, his voice is pleasing to the ear.

If you have an iPhone you need this app.
Of course, there is his web site where you can sample his music and find links to his social sites. A great place to connect and find more on this great artist.

So there is nothing more I can add about his musical talents but there is much more to the man. (Darn, that sounds like a line from one of his songs, Man Who Holds the Bow)
He starts his day by waking his wife to her favorite cup of coffee. If he has some free time he might play a little tennis. Afternoons are for his family, sorry, no promos when they need him. His work could start in San Antonio for a charity and end in Dallas for a radio interview. He is that hard working. Just try to follow his tweets.
Same goes for the guys he works with.
The point is, these are not just "bar room buddies". These are the people you would invite into your home. People you respect for their hard work, talent, morality, and family ethic.

If you are in Texas, you have to see one of their shows. If you are not, pick up one of jAm's new cds.
You won't be sorry.
