James Junius melds the honesty and integrity of a 70's singer-songwriter with the ethereal, expansive styles of bands like Slowdive and Ride. He describes his music as "Heartland Shoegaze," creating lush, nuanced soundscapes that set the tone for deeply personal stories influenced by such artists as Bruce Springsteen and James Taylor. He has begun the next chapter in his musical journey by relocating to Austin, Texas, recording his debut EP, partnering with the long-time executive producer of television's Austin City Limits, Terry Lickona, and preparing to showcase his new music at an official SXSW case in March, 2017. “James Junius = Ryan Adams + Ride” - Local Motive
