There has been a lot said about Joshua James, many accolades have been placed upon the head of the young and uber-talented Nebraska-born, Utah-based rock and folk singer, But never before have Australian music fans been privy to a direct release in our territory, Now, thanks to Cooking Vinyl Australia, his latest album From The Top of Willamette Mountain has a release date and will be preceded by the infectious first single "Queen of the City". Strangely familiar while refreshingly innovative, James' songs reflect a distinct American ache, while his sweetly hoarse vocal appears tremulously fragile one moment, soulfully-fuelled by a grunge rock drive the next, From The Top of Willamette Mountain has already been met with widespread critical acclaim largely due to James' arsenal of relentlessly impressive songs, songs that don't necessarily labour over the flawless take, but rather focusses on the honesty while escaping the traditional confines of the folk genre. The album's first single - 'Queen of the City' - came out of a late night, whisky-induced haze, depicting the internal paradox of good and evil, the id and the ego, faith and doubt.
