Yes, happy Christmas, merry just sounds silly...It's that time of year again. I'm here hunkered down with 'It's A Wonderful Life', a cup of hot chocolate, and getting ready for a Christmas Day dinner with the family. I hope everyone (honoring whichever event you celebrate) is warm, safe, and with those that are most important to them at this time of year.

Greetings fellow travelers,
I've just uploaded the last show I played at AS220 in Providence RI. This was a fantastic show, and quite possibly the best I've played in many a year. It is available for streaming and download.

Best Regards,
Justin

...See what I mean about the updating? Peace.

Welcome to the new Shadesjm.com! Changing editors and moving the site to a more user friendly interface as well as streamlining things should allow for more regular and frequent updates. It's still under construction, but feel free to search around. Thanks for the visit and please come back soon.

I'm sure that this third album must seem like a mythical, fabled, farce at this point... Work was begun over the summer, however the process was not going well and so those sessions were scrapped. Work began again on LOST IN PETRICHOR last week with 'Just A Little Bit Out Of Place' and it sounds great. I'm shooting for a spring/summer release...cross your fingers and I'll do the same.

-Regards,

Justin
