James Lee Stanley: “So where have they been hiding James Lee Stanley?  We could say that James Lee Stanley is probably the last great undiscovered singer-songwriter in America. But true as that may be let's say something else let's say that a diamond has been smuggled into the wasteland and here is where the wasteland ends“ -- Tom Robbins, Author of Even Cowgirls Get the Blues.   “James Lee Stanley, a master at relating to audiences” - The San Francisco Chronicle.   “Unexpected power from one acoustic guitar” - The Denver Post.     “A standing ovation followed his set opening for Art Garfunkel” – The Sacramento Bee .  James Lee's remarkable ability as a vocalist and composer allow him to create truly great songs, each accompanied by his amazing guitar orchestrations.

Houston & Jones: In the year 2000, Glenn Houston and Travis Jones, of the blistering, high octane Americana Roots powerhouse band Houston Jones began performing as a duet, honing their chops and developing their repertoire as part of their plan to put together a new band. With the addition of bass and drums in 2001, that band was launched as Houston Jones. In the past decade plus, the band has released six CDs and has garnered international attention with airplay on over 70 radio stations.  Rave reviews include that of the San Francisco Chronicle's David Wiegand, who termed the band "a confluence of sublime talent".
