Search - Justin James :: Perfect Sometimes

At just 20 years old James stared downed his own mortality as a woeful encounter with a Tiger Shark left him bleeding to death on a remote South American beach. Multiple blood transfusions and hundreds of stitches later, James found himself depleted, bedridden and bewildered for what was to become an agonizing year of recovery. It was during this harrowing stretch that an unlikely gift from his grandmother, a new acoustic guitar, revived his longing for life and unveiled a songwriter whose voice today has him dropping into a charmed world of travel and performance. Coming off the success of his 2007 release "Sundrenched" James' new album"Perfect Sometimes" is bound to lift your spirits. Recorded by famed producers Mikal Blue (Colbie Callait) & Andrew Williams (Five for Fighting) the new single "Perfect Sometimes" was inspired from the tropical beaches where James' spends his days. The summertime hit features Justin's friend & Hawaiian ukulele legend Jake Shimabukuro. "I have always enjoyed writing songs that can evoke emotions," says James', "if I can make someone smile for 3 minutes then I figure I did my job." Justin James spends most of his days basking in the rays of his new lease on life: surfing and writing songs on the sun-baked shores of the Caribbean, California and Hawaii, while sharing his music with tens of thousands of fans across the world. "All I need is the ocean, my music and the means to travel. If I can continue to make this work, I m pretty much set." His revival-inducing songs of love and living are now available for you!
