Born and raised on the South Side of Chicago,James timeless sound is steeped in blues legends like Robert Johnson and SonHouse, forever at the crossroads of damnation and redemption, the two inextricablywoven into the fabric of his songs.The Dark more raucous, rock band theShapeshifters, a loose group of musicians formed in Fayetteville, AR, which served ashis temporary home before a recent move to the west coast.Transcending any and all genres, James songs speak as much to these tremuloustimes as they do the eternal human condition. Steeped in mythology (the fearsome acappella which opens Orpheus) and Americas dark past (the deep delta blues ofBurn the Witch),The Dark as he does onthe two-part tribute to his steel-worker father on Love Will Find a Way I and Love WillFind a Way II. Shawns father died an alcoholic when he was five and the two songsfeature a journey from the depths of despair to the heights of ecstatic communion.Shawn sings, The blood that filled his veins flows through mine/Its not that Imashamed but how can I redefine how your story ends.The records about turning the darkness and pain Ive experienced in my life into songsthat can inspire others to make the best of hard times, he says.Recorded at his new labels Venice Beach, CA, recording studio with producer JimmyMesser (AWOLNation, Kelly Clarkson, Kygo, The White Buffalo), the songs for the newalbum were written by James while back in Chicago.</p>
