The story of Jan James reads as if it comes directly from the inner soul of American music. Its powerful sound and message echoes around the world. She has a stunning, soulful voice that earned her the recognition as Best Female Vocalist by the Detroit Metro Times. Her powerful vocals were first discovered when she sang in a church choir. With Jan James, these emotions and energy transformed into a deep understanding of RnB and Rock-n-Roll Soul. With these beginnings, Jan James is an artist on a journey that feels almost mystical. And she has continued this journey through each of her albums and tours. At Chicago's Royal George Theatre Jan James played the lead role of Janis Joplin in a play based on Janis' letters and songs.

For this she not only received a standing ovation, it was the aura of great talent. It was not only the power that Janis Joplin left us, it was also the power that makes Jan James brilliant now.

Based on her blues and country roots, combined with a strong guitar performance by her longtime partner Craig Calvert, a dedicated and consistently coherent album was created.

The country-style narration, emotionality and strong instrumentation bring the album to life. Your fans will recognize the signature that makes their sound so successful.
