Just a "give me a hat, a pistol, and a horse" kinda song. This song should definitely be on Hell On Wheels and Westworld TV shows soundtrack. Gorgeous!

[Atoll-okzm]

I love this sort of thing. That gritty dirty sound, kinda bluesy without the twang.

[ryancannon]

If this doesn't put hairs on your chest I don't know what will, I mean God damn, my goldfish just watched this, now he's a shark.

There's bad ass white boy blues singers, and then there's shawn fuckin James. They are not the same.. he is on his own level of greatness, and if you haven't seen him live in person, then you're missing out.. If you're not a fan, go to a show, and you will become a super fan 100%.. his energy and performance is top tier and there isn't another one like him.. He's also very humble and loves to meet his fans and sign autographs and take photos without charging you some crazy fee.. I've met him several times.. Anyway 🤘🤘

Y'all we are witnessing the rise of a musical phenom, a legend in the making.

I've been searching for something that had some of the dark echoing hardness of Jerry Cantrell's early solo work, the folk taste of Hozier, and the soul of traditional blues and I've found it in this dude.

Shawn James I can't even put into words what you do to my spirit, my body, my mind, when you play and sing . Heaven would totally be beside you .

[danielburns]

this is some of the best music I've ever heard. I need to know how to play this

[mfboom]

Howlin at the moon, my blood runs hot and outta tune
Been at it all night long, my prey the buzz now long gone
On and on, on and on
On and on, on and on

Hellhounds at my heels sharpen my wit, a raw deal
Don't matter anyhow, my pace just wears them down
On and on, on and on
On and on, on and on

Don't you get me wrong, I know I don't belong
I'm just howlin at the moon, my curse will carry through
On and on, on and on
On and on, on and on

Your Welcome :)

[slumber]

WOW this is something man. I was classically trained in piano for years but switch to blues rock and swing a while back, and this just reaffirms it. Fantastic.

[mattjean]

That's my favorite Shawn James video. Hands down..

[erzatsasjaash]

I'm glad your song was in the new Last Of Us trailer so that I could find such good music.

[mr.sinister]

He's got that Louisiana Blues voice <3

[The_Lone_Outlaw]

The American spirit flows through this song. This is the music of man.

[doctormatthattan]

This sounds like Hozier with balls, I love it.

[kathleenbell]

Truly soulful artistry is a huge missing piece of music right now, I'm grateful for this mans Music that's worth listening to, And one of the best vocalists I've heard in a very long time. Keep the music coming & I'll keep listening

[joshmaze]

Shawn James is the next Rock God in my book that voice is just raw emotion, bluesy guitars, the violinist/ fiddler is fucking amazing number of the beast is one of the best cover songs I've heard and appreciate that he went the way he went with the song it's so powerful and haunting that way and I've been through a lot of hell I'm my 40yrs and it just made things make more sense it's my go to when I'm struggling I so want to see one of his more personal shows and he's about the music and playing for people than a lot bands just whoring out crap music for the almighty dollar

[Kumbaya]

I swear, can't stop the appreciation for Shawn James

[crystalhughes]

This is just what I needed tonight...been a long hospital stay...I swear music saves my life!!

Threw that guitar in the mud first to get ready. Such a dirty sound. Been a fan for years.
