ABOUT JAMES SUMMERFIELD
James Summerfield often sounds like he could be holed up in some moss hung Appalachian cabin, sitting on the porch, banjo on his lap and bottle of hooch at his side, swapping Southern gothic songs of misery and murder with preacher men and moonshiners.
Previously signed to Birminghams Bearos Records and Sanctuary Group, in 2002 Buick 6 (later The Toques) released the quite wonderful Drunk on My Porch earning glowing reviews and a John Peel Session. A well received second single, Too Tired to Worry, followed as did a second Peel Session.
In September 2003 James decided to unhitch the wagon and go solo.
Result? "A song writer of real flair" as www.Americana-uk.com so sagely put it a few months later in reviewing his self-penned, self-produced and almost totally self-played debut album Hailah, Hailah with its yearning lap steel, soulful Hammond and bible black violin.
James second album, Paint the Road oozes authenticity and has earned him great reviews.
