Perfect Party Entertainment!!

Hired James for my husband’s surprise Bday party. He drove all the way from Tempe to Marana to perform for us. He is very talented and everyone enjoyed the great music. James is very communicative. That gave me peace of mind as the event approached.

Hired as: One Man Band

High energy acoustic rock and blues! Must hear.

James McCoy is a seasoned player with amazing attention to his playing. He is a modern, versatile player who can play solo, as a duet, or trio. The band has a polished sound that makes you want to keep coming back to the show.

Hired as: Guitarist, One Man Band
