I have spent the last year of my life at UCLA in Los Angeles, California. I am now back in New Zealand and working towards moving back to Los Angeles for good.
I am currently in the process of writing material for my solo album and recording it in my home studio. All songs on the album are written by me, feature me on every instrument and on vocals. All copyrights of these songs belong to me. There will be many more to come but they are still undergoing construction. For more on this go to http://myspace.com/james.jeffery
