About James Jean

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My first instrument was the cello, but the kind of songs I wanted to write needed guitars, bass, drums and hopefully some pedal steel. The cello still makes an appearance here and there to bring in the beauty, but I write my songs on guitar. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Bob Dylan, Nashville Skyline Bob Marley & The Wailers, Legend – The Best Of Bob Marley & The Wailers Ryan Adams, Love Is Hell These are classic albums with great melodies and brilliant songwriting. In one way or another the songs on these albums inspired my writing and musicality. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Good Dirt” This song possesses the qualities that I admire in a lot of the classic tunes that have inspired me through the years. It's simple and true. Dirt is about as basic and simple as a guy can get, and there's a lot of joy in knowing the truth.
