James Hall

This week we take a deep dive with James Hall. We hit on a lot of topics and a lot of bands like Mary My Hope, The James Hall Band, The Futura Bold, The Steady Wicked, and The Ladies Of. As always, we find out how he got his start in the music business. But we also find out a lot more. Like how the record labels had a hard time figuring out what to do with him and his band, placing them on tours with bands as diverse as Maria McKee followed immediately by Rage Against The Machine. But matches like those helped him look at music in a different way.  Both Hurricane Katrina and starting a family had profound effects on James and his music. He’s grateful for everything that’s happened; good, bad, and otherwise. He’s discovered an interesting outlet for his music in yoga classes. And while James admits to never having sold insurance, he does do work for Books For Africa. Check out jameshall.com for music and links to his social accounts. Follow us @PerformanceAnx.
