Meet the artist

James Garland

James writes his own songs and plays them loud: a full-band Texas country set with rock-and-roll muscle, built on a decade of singles and the dance-hall circuit that made them radio hits. Bring him a festival crowd or a Friday-night honky-tonk and he'll treat them the same way.

Houston-raised, Texas-toured, and charting on Texas radio since "My Next Mistake".
