From the early 60's Folk music scene, with a jaunt through Southern Californias' surf/rock music, and eventually landing in Austin, Texas' "outlaw country", James Austin has been working to perfect his songwriting skills.
He has performed from the Canadian Southeast down the Eastern U.S. seaboard, across the Gulf States, and up to Northern California, where he has opened for and performed with the likes of Jackson Browne, Hoyt Axton, Ray Price, Floyd Tillman, Pure Prairie League, Waylon & Willie, and even Muddy Waters, along with many others.
Around 1990 James decided to take a break from music to, as he puts it,
"make a real living and raise my family". Then recently a friend in Florida contacted him and told him that he remembered that James had been "a pretty damned good songwriter, so why not write a song about people who are shooting all the road signs down here". That resulted in James' Road Sign Shooter, followed by Mailbox Bashers Came By, and several more that will be released on the upcoming Rounders And Rogues to be released in 2008.
James Austin has settled down in the hills of East Tennessee and at work on the upcoming project. His current release, Love, Hate And Other Nonsense is getting airplay in England, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and the U.S.realeditorbest profile toolsrealeditorbest profile tools

I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks

Hey James - Thanks for the friendship! Music links us all together. There are
wars taking place in every country in the world. Some are just more
obvious. Check out my new video "Simpler Time". Reach out and make a
difference and the ripple will be felt around the world. It has to come
from within each of us. The alternative is unacceptable. Music can make
a difference. Keep reaching out.
